MIND THE GAP - AFRICA

We seek to care for the physical emotional and spiritual needs of orphaned abandoned and vulnerable children in Africa by establishing and running small family 'forever' homes. Employing local people to provide a high standard of loving care for the children with particular attention to medical and nutritional needs as well as attention to their development and educational needs

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
One or more trustees receive benefits from the charity

Financial issues to consider:

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