THE CIAO FOUNDATION CIO

CiaO provides aid, funding, practical support & encouragement to individuals whose life circumstances, health or injuries have resulted in them facing seemingly insurmountable challenges and help them achieve their goals. We do this by offering Awards to applicants that need guidance and support in order to fulfil their ambitions and overcome a challenge that may be stopping them thriving in life.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

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
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
