ALPHA INTERNATIONAL MINISTRIES

HOLDING REGULAR WORSHIP SERVICES THAT PROMOTE PUBLIC BENEFIT OF SPIRITUAL ENRICHMENT THROUGH PRACTICING THE PRINCIPLES OF THE CHRISTIAN FAITH.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
  • The Board composition appears to be very static

Financial issues to consider:

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