## Section D Achievements and performance
**Summary of the main** Despite the difficult political situation in Myanmar, the Charity continued **achievements of the charity** to support its objectives and contribute to the educational outcomes of **during the year** people in northern Myanmar.
## _**Kachin Relief Fund**_
The Kachin Relief Fund is a small charity that supports the Kachin people
4 March **2012**
**TAR**
in Myanmar. It provides emergency relief, help for Internally Displaced People (IDP’s) and disadvantaged locals, education for children, and advocacy, activities and awareness to promote human rights.
In the reporting period, the Charity funded teacher training to remote areas and for IDP’s. The training covered both teaching methodologies and subject matters, to improve teaching quality and enable effective use of new resources/textbooks.
The Charity also funded training for 26 headmasters from across the region.
## _**Prat Manu**_
Prat Manu is a local community organisation established to promote ECCD. One of their aims is to produce and publish books (non-fiction and traditional tales) primarily in local language (Kachin, also known as Jinghpaw).
In the reporting period, Prat Manu has continued its publishing, networking and training activities. These included publishing and republishing books in local language, providing training, running a mobile library and supporting local mini library / reading activities.
## _**Bridge**_
BRIDGE is an organisation that aims to improve livelihoods, forestry and environmental conservation, and women’s empowerment in the Kachin State.
BRIDGE's Bamboo Project aims to sustainably grow and harvest bamboo to be used in training local villagers to make items ranging from school equipment, toys, to furniture and buildings; and for them to set up small enterprises so that they can support themselves and their families financially.
In the reporting period, the Charity supported internships and traineeships for young people. The Charity also provided funding for additional investment in the Bamboo farm, including planting additional varieties of bamboo, other trees and support staff.
## _**Emmanuel Orphanage**_
The Emmanuel Orphanage is run by the BCMS Anglican Church in Mohnyin. Children come from remote villages in the mountains and IDP camps to gain access to education.
In the reporting period, the Charity continued to provide general support towards the education of the children through a financial contribution towards food, clothes and educational resources.
## **Section E Financial review**
**Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves**
Cash reserves at 31/03/2023 were just over £10K in unrestricted funds. The Charity enters the next reporting period with no binding commitments to these funds and unclaimed Gift Aid of around £4K. As such, the Charity goes into the next reporting period in a healthy financial position to consider new proposals / requests for financial contributions.

## **Further financial review details (Optional information)**
You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant about:
- the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising);
- how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity;
- investment policy and objectives including any ethical investment policy adopted.
All funds are unrestricted.
The charity has the following main sources of funds
- Regular donations through monthly direct debits. These provide a stable income of approximately £3.5K per year
● We receive up to £1000 per year as a result of one-off donations and small fundraising activities (eg coffee mornings/lunches, handicraft sales).
- Major donations from a key supporter of the Charity who currently donates between £10-20K per year on an ad hoc basis. The Trustees understand that these donations are above and beyond our regular income and therefore, only commit to spending when the donation has been confirmed.
- Gift Aid. During the reporting
Myanmar remains disconnected from international banking systems. This means the Charity cannot transfer money via IBAN or SWIFT. As such we continue to rely on Western Union or individuals based in third party countries such as Thailand or the US to transfer money from the UK to Myanmar. We hope that in the future Myanmar will be part of the international banking system and we can move away from reliance on Western Union and individuals.
The Charity considers all proposals and requests for funding. In general, the Charity chooses to make a financial contribution towards a project rather than funding projects in their entirety.
