ASSOCIATION OF INTERCHURCH FAMILIES

AIF gives support for families where one partner is usually Roman Catholic, or Orthodox, and the other of another church, giving them a voice within the churches, and working for unity of Christians everywhere.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending is declining
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
