CLASSROOMS IN THE CLOUDS 

Children in rural Nepal have few educational options; many work to support families. +70% of students don't complete grade 10. A registered NGO, CITCNepal, working closely with local communities, are dedicated to improving education, building good quality classrooms, sponsoring salaries of teachers and improving quality teaching and learning with training including first aid and menstrual health
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
