BAREFOOT COLLEGE INTERNATIONAL UK

To prevent and relieve poverty and to promote sustainable development, in socially and economically disadvantaged communities, in some of the least developed countries in the world.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
There are only 4 trustees

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
