LOVE RUSSIA LIMITED 

Works in the west of Russia in Moscow, Ryazan, St Petersburg and Volkhov regions. Supports orphaned and needy children, orphanage leavers, single destitute mothers, disabled young people, a day care centre for the disabled, and a few elderly destitue people. Staff visit Russia every two months to monitor projects and project funding, and progress of individuals.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • 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
