THE PURIM TRUST

The current main activity of the charity is to find sponsors for deprived children in the Philippines to enable them to receive an education, but also providing food, clothing, school transport, medical and dental care so that they are in a physical condition to obtain the maximum benefit from their education.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending since inception
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive benefits from the charity

Financial issues to consider:

  • Income was lower than spending in the latest year
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
