TRUSTEES REPORT 2020

I am very pleased to report that the Aimar Foundation has had another highly productive year in 2020. In total, we raised £88,000 (2019: 59,500) which was another great year for fundraising.

Once again, the Foundation provided innovative technology solutions to Crisis at Christmas, the Shannon Trust, NASA in Newham, and the SS Robin.

As usual, the Foundation provided all of the technology solutions for the Crisis at Christmas project. Simon James, our senior project manager and Chris Riley, our technology architect continue to do an amazing job leading the annual effort. Each year we focus on adding innovative technology to the Crisis solution and continue to streamline the activities and work required for a successful project. This continues to be the main initiative of the year and is the cornerstone of our volunteering and fundraising efforts.

The solution will be very different this year given the impact of the Coronavirus pandemic.

Our goal continues to be to leverage all of the knowledge learned, volunteer awareness, and community support to help smaller charitable organizations throughout London.

The cost to the foundation to deliver these services was £70,017 an increase from last £60,171. The increase was mostly due to employer and consultant costs.

Total profit for the year was £17,983 versus a loss of £671 the previous year.

Simon Clark our CEO continues to do an outstanding job developing and building our strong volunteer network. Our volunteer network continues to expand significantly and extends to a number of Financial Services Firms and other institutions in the City. Building on the partnership with Morgan Stanley and winning the social responsibility category at the FSTech awards, the Foundation continues to attract a strong pipeline of es.

We are very confident that in 2021 we will continue to build on our successes. We are differences through technology in the Charities that we support.

Yours Faithfully,

Thomas Mosimann
