MAJI MAZURI SOCIAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT SERVICES, KENYA 

Maji Mazuri UK exists to support the work of Maji Mazuri in Kenya, including a Youth Group, Teenz Group and Nursery School in Mathare Valley slums in Nairobi and a residential home for disabled, orphaned and HIV positive children.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • 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
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period but has stabilised more recently
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
