MENICHO VESIMCHO 

THE RELIEF OF POVERTY BY WAY OF PROVIDING OF FOOD BOXES AND MONETARY GRANTS AMONGST PERSONS IN NEED AND HARDSHIP IN PARTICULAR BUT NOT EXCLUSIVELY THOSE IN THE ORTHODOX JEWISH COMMUNITY IN SALFORD UK.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 3 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 recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
