UNITE 4 HUMANITY 

The relief of financial need and suffering among victims of natural or other kind of disasters in the form of money (or other means deemed suitable) for persons, bodies, organisations and/or countries affected, including the provision of medical aid.
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
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 3 trustees
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • Unrestricted reserves appear to be dangerously low at the latest year end
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
