GIVINGWORKS

SUPPORTING BUDDING PHILANTHROPISTS BY EDUCATING AND SUPPORTING THEM WITH SERVICES TO HELP THEM ACHIEVE THEIR PHILANTHROPIC OBJECTIVES

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years, despite a decline more recently
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

There are only 4 trustees
The Board is completely male
The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

Unrestricted reserves appear to be dangerously low at the latest year end
