TECHNION UK 

Promoting interest in and raising funds for Technion - Israel Institute of Science and Technology in Haifa Israel.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker
  • This charity has received considerable income from legacies in recent years
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • 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
  • Accounts have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
