EAST AFRICA CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT TRUST 

The Foundation has a mission to transform the lives of young Africans through sustainable cricket and education activity in East Africa. To achieve this it has devised and developed a new programme to ensure that disadvantaged young people from these parts are given the educational, personal and social opportunities that competitive sport - and cricket in particular - can provide.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
  • Over half the Board have joined recently

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
