THE VOLUNTARY SOLIDARITY FUND INTERNATIONAL

The VSF's mission is to provide an opportunity for the more fortunate in society to help those who are disadvantaged by contributing financially and by volunteering time. The VSF promotes existing charities and individual initiatives in developed countries which strive to bring marginalized individuals and families into society. Support is in the form of Board approved grants and/or loans.

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 dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is predominantly male

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended

Established: 6 years
