OUR LADY OF GOOD HELP FOUNDATION 

Advancement of the Roman Catholic faith througout the world including promotion of the Benedictine Order
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 4 trustees
  • The Board composition appears to be rather 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
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
