FEED THE HUNGRY, UK

REACHING THOSE IN DESPERATE NEED. DURING 2016 THE CHARITY HAS SUPPORTED THE RELIEF EFFORT IN ATHENS, BULGARIA, UGANDA, ZAMBIA, ROMANIA, NEPAL & KURDISTAN AS WELL AS IN THE UK. IT ALSO PROVIDED ASSISTANCE TO THE EVERY CHILD EVERY DAY PROGRAM WHICH HAS GROWN TO 125,000.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end
