THE AKILI TRUST

We fit out and support community libraries in rural Kenya in consultation with local people, providing books, newspapers, IT, book development programmes and training in order to improve literacy and availability of information. We also give secondary school bursaries to able, needy students from the immediate locality, in return for a few hours work in the libraries, each week.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period, despite a decline more recently
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

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