THE J & J BENEVOLENT FOUNDATION 

The charity's principle activity throughout the period was the provision and distribution of donations and grants to charities. The charity aims to maximise its grants and donations on an annual basis.
Analysis by Giving is Great

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
