NYUMBANI UK AND THE HOTCOURSES FOUNDATION

Nyumbani UK & The Hotcourses Foundation supports HIV affected children in Kenya, pulling them out of poverty and the worst start in life, to empower and give them a future through education. We fund The Hotcourses Primary School and the Lawson Secondary School providing education for approx 1,000 orphaned children as well as educating approx 100 children living in informal communities in Nairobi.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has received more than half of its income from legacies in recent years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is predominantly male
The Board has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Income has been volatile recently
