Relieving poverty and advancing education of persons living in remote and marginalized areas in Cameroon, by providing financial support, infrastructure, education and entrepreneurial skills training.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • 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
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing and returns have been filed late on 5 occasions over the last 5 years
