2 BEARS CHILDRENS CHARITY

The 2Bears charity has a mission to support the work of local charities in Southern India. We work with organisations who strive towards collective self-reliance and the development of people through community participation. Our role is to provide funding for our partner charities. We do this through donation, fund raising events and selling of products produced by the organisation.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
There are only 2 trustees
The Board composition appears to be very 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 is declining
