PLANT YOUR FUTURE

Plant your Future works in the Peruvian Amazon. The project promotes sustainable land use. We are providing support for reforestation and sustainable agricultural systems on degraded lands through agroforestry, where farmers' incomes can be improved through the commercialization of natural assets, including fruits, carbon and timber.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
