AFRICA'S MUSTARD SEED

The charity aims to assist in the alleviation of poverty in the communities in Africa it serves. This is addressed through investing in the medium to long term development (such as the provision of funding for academic and vocational training) as well providing assistance to some more immediate needs (such as hunger and homelessness).

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

There are only 2 trustees
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
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
