    WALTHAM FOREST THUSO IN SOUTH AFRICA 

    We raise money to support a feeding scheme for destitute pupils at Thuto Lesedi Secondary School. We also send books to assist development of school libraries, and send Solar study lamps. Thuto Lesedi Secondary school is historically a "Black only" school in Vosloorus, Gauteng Province in South Africa.
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period, despite a decline more recently

    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 and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
