CHAIA'S STATEMENT
For the year ended 31 March 2021
I have a sense of consiilerable pride while writing this statement to accompany the audited accounts for
the period ending 31 Marth 2021. Buoyed by the support ol the Board of Trustee5 and of our loyal
individual and corporate members, the small TFN team rose to the challenges of the global pandemic
and delivereij one of the most outstanding years in TFN'S 19wear history. The successful move from live
to virtual crowdfvndin8 events. necessitsted by SLtstalned periods of lockdown. created new
opportunities which will be the bedrock of futllfe gr0￿h. It is a great pleasure to share highlights of the
vear and to acknowledge w*th gratitude the support which ha5 enabled us to have such widesprea
Impact at a time ol imrnense need.
TFN'S total direct contrlbution to soual change in the UK In 2020-21 was £583K. This compare5 to £481k
in 2019.20. Taking into account events held in the UK and those or8anised by our International Afflliates,
£15.3 mllllon h35 now been raised for 2.248 social change projects at 594 events woildwide since TFN
wa5 founded In 2002.
UK art￿ltIeS
The move from Ilve to vlrtual events led to a 66% Increase in attendance and a 70% Sncrease in funds
raised at our Fla8ship London events Iwhich of course reached muth further than London, belng
dellvered virtually) compared with the 12 months prior. At a stroke. we were able to increase the funding
target for charitles from £6.OC#J to £10,0￿ with Many charlties substantially exceedlng the higher tar8et,
th15 belng one of our key 51rate8ic priorities for the year. The average grant we paid io charlties In 2020-
21 Increased from around £7.000 to more than £16.LKKI at Flagship events. At a time when many small
charltle5 were fightlng lor survival. this could not have been more welcome. Increases In attendance and
funds raisÈd have In turn led to many more inquiries about membership and an increase in the quantlty
and quallty of cha￿ty applications.
I would Ilke to make special mention of the vital role our cory)orate partners played In this SLt¢cess. T.
Rowe Price, Rathbone Greenbank Investment5. Macquarie, Mishton de Reya LLP, EQ Investments and
OrtOPU5 contributed 8enerous match funding to the tharities which pltched at the events (funds which
are given on the basis that they will be "matched" by others). whith had the effect of acceleratin8 the
8ivin8 and ensurln6 we achieved the £10,000 targets.
Of course. the Impaa TFN ha5 on charltles is far ereater than the funds we ralse for them at our events.
In preparation for the triennial Swan Appe31 launched to Members in April 2021, the team undertook
analysis of the Smpact report5 from charities funded in 2018-20 which has shown that,
96% of charities reported that the skills they developed a5 a result of the traininB we provlde
le.g.. pitch training. proposal writin81 and new contatts they made le.g. with long term donor5.
pro bono support Secured and. in some cases, new trustees) increased thLyr organizational
capacity to raise funds over the longer term li.e. beyond the event).
65% of charities levera8ed additional funding as a direct result of pitching at TFN. This might
have been as a result of a new rel3tion5hip with a donor. thelr ablllty to prove their concept with
TFN funds and therefore be eligible to bigger trusts for larger grants, or because they had more
capacity for fundraising capacity and a stamp of approval from TFN

For the year ended 31 March 2021
the total figure reported as leveraged as a Consequen￿ of pitching at TFN between 2018-20 wo5
£2.965m. This is more than double the amount raised at the events.
Comments such as this from Rhiannon Kearns, of Li8htyear Foundation funded at our 18th June 2020
event underline thi5.

Un￿rtaIntyfor smoll chorities, weleel 50 lucky to work with TFN.
The success of virtual events also meant we were able to hold planned events Wlth partners focu51nB on
issues Includlng the envlronment, LGBT+ rights and strengthening the soclal enterprise sector, again at
time when these issues were at risk of neglert. EFN Live raised £51,699.75, City for LG8T+ raised
£26,039.51 and two Crowdbacker events raised a total of £45,864.86.
We fast tracked tFie launch of the Black Funding Network18FNI wlth TFN Member. Patrlcia Hamzahee, In
le5S than 12 months, two BFN events have raised over £50,000 for six black-led tommunity.based
projects. I'm proud that we are able to support this vital and timely inltiative by sharin8 our model and
providin8 back-office support, while allowin8 the small 8FN team to focus on building their donor base
and lundrai5in8 for thelr own core costs.
InternJtlon•l actbvltl
Oursuccess In the UK had a very positlve lrnpatton ¢>ur International Affillates. In the last year, 30+ virtual
TFN events have taken place in countries as diverse as Hungary. Peru. New Zealand, Germany, and Ru5sla
with many more planned for the coming year. While we were disappointed that a number of planned
Study visits to London had to be cancelled, we were very pleased to be able to dellver tralnln8, peer
learning and general support to OUT affiliate network using Zi>om.
Since 2012. 328 international TFN events have raised an estimated £6.2m for 1072 soclal chan8e projects.
This would nol have been possible wlthout the vision and steadfast support of the Marie.Louise von
Motesic2ky Charitable Tnjst and the Charles Siewart Mott Fotsndation which have jointly funded TFN
Intematlonal for the past nine years. I would also like to acknowledge the support of the Frederick Mulder
Foundation whlch was also one of the e3rly lunders ofTFN International and which now fvnds the Stafter
Grant programrne through which our Sntemational Affiliates may apply for a grant of Cl,W) toward5 the

Looklng to the future
Looking to a post pandemic future, we are excited about plans which will be enabled by funds ralsed
through the 2021-23 Swan Appeal for which again. l extentl my ithmense gratltude to TFN Members.

CHAIR'S STATEMENT
For the year ended 31 March 2021
Our first priority 15 to sustain the momentum we have created with our move to wrtual events and the
benefit5 they deliver- such as increa5inR our reach whilst pawng the way back to live events whlch glve
us vital opportunities for hurnan connettion. It is likely that TFN events in the future will be a combination
of live. virtual and"hybri(r (simultaneously live and virtuall offerlng Member5 and donors the option of
how they take part. To deliver thls, we are making investmewrts in our technical capabilities and staff
capaclty.
Our second priority is to Brow our individual and corporate memberships. Mernbers are the driving force
of TFN. creating an Impart that is far greater than the sum of it5 parts. With a 70+% Increase In the
number of people attending virtual events, we have a very healthy pipeline and a key objective over the
comin8 year is to increase our staff capacity and digital systems to enable us to take full advantage of
thls. We will also revlew the e¥istin8 individual and corporate membership offerings to ensure they are
offering value and enabling Members to have rnaximum impact on the issues and organi5atlons they ca
about. Growin8 our membership is also key to our long term 5UStainability. Membership fees are a vital
component of our earned income, which In turn 5UPPOrts our core costs.
ThSrdly, we want TFN to be tru￿ transformational, nol purety transactional. The 8lving or receiving of a
(lonation at an event is an opportunlty for a far deeper connection between a donor and a charlty and
we want to ensure that we create the opiimum conditions for this to happen. Again, we will achieve Ihls
through Investment In both our digital capacity and HR capacity.
Thank5
I would like to conclude my report by expressing my gratitude to those without whom none of thls would
have been possible.
Flrstly, to the funders who have generou51y supported TFN'5 core costs throu8hout the past 12 month5
and demonstrated such flexibilily and care towards our work Brooks Foundation. T&J Meyer Familv
Foundation, I Paul Getty Jr Charitable Trust, EnniSmO￿ Foundation, Green Room Foundation, Rathbone
Greenbank and the Frederick Mulder Foundation. And as I mentioned earlier, TFN International is funded
by the Marie-Loulse von Moteslciky Charitsble Trust and the charl￿ Stewart Mott Foundation and again
I thank thern for the best part of a decade's support.
Secondly, I would like to make special mention of our former Chair, Mlchael Maynard who ha$ played an
integral rose ai events throughout the pandemic. leading the pled8lng on many occasions, providing
much needed continuity and connection for us all. and lending immense 5UPPOrt to the team for which I
know they are deeply grateful.
A5 always. l am deeply grateful to my fellow Trustees who deploy their time and expertise generously in
service to TFN and the charitie5 we support. There have been many extra meetings and unprecedenteil
challenges these past 18 month5 ond the support of Trustees throughout. in addition to heavy workloads
and challÈn8in8 personal orcumstan￿5. has been key to our su¢ce55 this year. There have been two
changes in the past year. In August 2020 we bade a Sad farewell to 105h Babarinde after three years of
Service but were deli8hted to welcome Ofow•¥e Aig-lmoukhuede the following month.

Lastly, I want to acknowledge the hard work of the TFN ieam which for most of the pandemic numbered
just three. In particular, Eugenie Harvey, ¢)ur CEO and Jennie Jeffery, our Events and Partnerships
Manager. Eugenie and lennie were supported by Matt Francis who covered for our Finance and Grant5
OfFiter Solly Hoang who was on maternity leave followng the birth of baby Koby in August. In November,
we welcomed Stephen Drury as Digital Engagement Manager and he is in the process of overseeing
eKitSng improvemenis to our digital operations.
Next year is our 20th anniversary and I have never felt more excited about the future
our
transformatSon plans a5plie to make TFN a leailer in global philanthropyl When Fred. Sue, P8uI, and Polly
started TFN In 2002. they were pioneers of a movement towards giving more collaboratlvely and
effectlvely. 20 years on, we are buildlng on this solld foundalion. Our 51Bhts are set high and we will be
trylng several Innovatlve ideas to ensure our approach to partnerin8 Wlth grassroots charities Is effeetlve,
Impactful and long-la5ting.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Result lor the year
There was an increase in funds for the year amountlng to £10.958. The final tTanthe of the last Swan
Appeal was utilised as the or8anisation continued to invest in its infrastructure. helped by an increase in
unrestricted income. Thls has Increased unrestricted general reserves to £98,469 which meets the
reserves policy as set out below.
D•talls of Reserves
TFN is a small and nimble or8anisation that relies on a comblnation of membership fees, levy income and
grants to sustain k5 artiviiles, as earned income alone would not allow us to continue operatin8. Thls
means that If there were to be a gap In eamed Qf fundraised income, it Is likely that the charlty would
have to close down. To avoid closure in case of temporary fundlng difficultles. staff lon8-term absence
due to illness or parental leave, the Trustees have a8reed to keep a certain level of financial reserves to
ensure that main operations can continue for a period of 3 to 6 months. The main concern of the Trustees
is to ensure that Staff can Continue workin& primarily to secure new funding for TFN and the charities It
supports. In furtherance of which, tfustees have set a mithmum reserves target of £60,C￿0 and an
optimum tar8et of £90,OCKJ.
Reserves have been built In pan from the legacy of the late Venetia West Estate received in 2012. The
level of reserves is being reviewed every 3 months by the Trustees at their reBular meetings. This policy
is reviewed yearty to reflect any ss8niflcant changes to the charity5 work and circumstances.
The Trustees anti¢ipate that the COVID-19 outbreak in February 2020 and the subsequent health and
financial crisls ensuin8 a5 a result may have an on-going impacl on the Charity's incoming resources and
resources expended in the comin8 year5. They have considered the likely impact on its incoming
resources and how the chartty can react to that impact and are collfident that it has sufficient reserves
nd enough flexibility to ensure that It can continue to exist for the foreseeable future.

BOARD OF TRU5TEES' REPORT
For the year ended 31 March 2021
Most of the Brant funders that TFN relies on in order io operate have confirmed their tommitment to
continue supportlng the organi5ation. In addition, there have been significant un501icited donatlons and
the targets for donations in the first few events of 2020-21 have exceedetl the budgeted figures. Should
difficulties arise in the current financial climate. it has been calculated that reserves of £60,000 would be
needed to cover ihe costs of windlng UP the orKani$8ti0n.

The Tru51ees have assessed the major rlsks to whlch the tompany Is exposed. in partlcular those related
to the operations and finances of the company and are satisfied that Systems and piocedures are in place
to mitl8ate our exposure to the major rlsks.
The Board of Trustees regularly reviews and assesses the risks faced by TFN in all areas of its work and
plans for the mana8ement of those iisks. Risk is an everyday part of charitable activity and managlng it
effectSvely Is essentlal if Trustees are to achieve their key obiectlves and safeguard TFN'S funds and
asset5. TFN'S risks relate primarily. but are not limited to, the financial antl operational p051tions of the
tharity however external circumstance5 such as uncertainty due to the on-80in8 Impacts of the Covld.19
pandemic are also considered by Trusiees.

Responslbllltles of trustees
As explained more fully in the trusteo. responsibilities statement set out on page 11, the trustees (who
are also the directors of the charitable comp3ny for the purposes of company lawl are responsible for
the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view. and
for stjth internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial
statement5 that are free from material mi55tatement. whether due to fraud or error.
In preparlng the financlal statements, the trustees are responsible for a55essSn8 the companws 3bllity to
continue as a going concern, dlsclosin& as applicable, Matter5 related to going concern and using the
8oln8 concern basis of ac¢ountin8 unless the tru5tee5 either intend to liqu5date the company or to cease
operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do 50.
Audltoes re5ponslbllltle$ for the audbt ot the flnanclal statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance aboLtt whether the financlal statements as a whole
are free from materlal missiatement, whether due to fraud or error, and 1015sue an audltor's rèport that
includes our oplnlon. Reasonable assurance is a hlgh level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an
audit conducted in accordance wlth ISAS IUKI will a￿ayS detect a maierial misstatement when It exists.
Misstatements tan arise from fraud or efror and are considered materlal if, Indlwdually or In the
aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to Influence the economlc decislons of users taken on the
bèsi5 of these financlal Statements.
Irregularitles, includlng frautl. are Instances of non-compliance wlth laws and reBulations. We desi8n
procedures in Ilne with our responsibilities. outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respett
of Irregularltles, indudin8 fraud. The exient to which our procedu￿5 are capable of detectln8
Irregularities, includin8 fraud is detailed below..
The Charitable Company is required to comply with both company law and charlty law and, based
on our knowledge ol its activities, we identified that the le8al requirement to •ccurately account
for restricted funds was of key si8nihcance.
We gained an unijerstanding of how the charitable company complied with Its le8al and
regulatory framework, including the reqtjirement to properly account for restricted funds,
through discussions with managemenl and a review of the documented policies, procedures and
control5.
The audit team, whtch is experienced in the audlt of Charities, considered the charitable
company's susceptibility to rnaterial rnisstatement and how fraud may octur. Our consideration5
included the risk of management override.
Our approach was to check that all re5tritted income w35 properly identified and separatelv
accounted for and to ensure that only valid and appropriate expenditure was charged to
restricted funds. This included reviewing journal adjustments and unusual transactions.
