## **Trustees’ Annual Report for the period** **From 1/1/2021 To 31/12/2021** **Charity name: Ifakara Bakery Project** ## **Charity registration number:1114531** ## **Objectives and Activities** ||SORP reference|| |---|---|---| |Summary of the purposes of
the charity as set out in its
governing document|Para 1.17|The income of the charity is to be used for
the preservation and protection of health in
Ifakara, Kilombero District, Tanzania and
provide relief, where there is financial
hardship, for the advancement of
education.| |Summary of the main
activities in relation to those
purposes for the public

activities, projects or

accounts.|Para 1.17 and
1.19|Following a yearly plan, we continue to
send funds to trusted individuals to enable
them to purchase daily bread from the local
Bakery which is well managed by the
Sisters of St Francis.
From time to time, we fund teacher’s
salaries and students at secondary schools
and colleges.
Provision is made for pastoral care.
As particular needs arise, we help develop
innovative work to improve local facilities
and utility supplies.| |Statement confirming

“Free Bread” for which our charity provides
social investment grants to various local
recipients (Including schools and hospitals).
We are pleased to report that the social
impact, which can be measured in many
ways, not only provides positive health care
(there continue to be no deaths from
starvation despite poor harvests) but also
through education and improvement of
utilities - water and electricity for example -
ensures increasing independence and
empowerment.
We continue to provide an emergency
contingency fund which has proved helpful
in times of personal and group need.
Friends of the Ifakara Bakery Project
provide support, advice and additional
fundraising activities from time to time.| |---|---|---| |Contribution made by

achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to
the circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.|Para 1.20|**Supplies of free bread**
Our main focus in 2022 was ensuring the
adequate provision of bread through The
Free Bread Fund to the existing accounts
we support. We funded 104,328 loaves of
bread during 2022 and over 80% of these
reached children below the age of 7 at
Kindergartens and Nursery schools. This is
an increase of 32,996 loaves from 2021
and reflects the growth in the size of the
orphanages, kindergartens, and the
number of hospital in-patients and leprosy
centre residents.
It is a lifeline for many and has helped
continue to maintain improved school
attendance despite the impact of Covid.
The free bread provided for hospital wards
goes specifically to malnourished children,
neonates and TB patients and for residents
and day patients at the Nazareti Leprosy
Centre.| **Education** Two kindergartens, Mahutanga Kindergarten and Kivukoni Kindergarten, which already receive daily supplies from the Free Bread Fund, were unable to pay the teachers salaries which would have meant the schools would have closed. We were able to send funds for the annual salaries, thus impacting the lives of the children, their families and the village as a whole. **Innovative activities** We have continued to develop the living standards at the residential centre for learning disabled children, The Bethlehem Centre, by providing the remaining funds for solar panels and the installation to provide electricity to the dormitories and recreation room for the first time. **Emergency/Pastoral Care** 2021 again saw some individuals needing personal support, we provided emergency funds to the Nazareti Leprosy Centre into the fund set up in honour of Sister Maria Paula who was instrumental to the founding of the centre. The Trustees agreed with all such support provided. **Communication** Improvements continued to keep the many supporters of the charity updated. These included to the website, the creation of a master list and the mass mailing of a Christmas card which included the annual newsletter. Outreach has resulted in a subsequent increase in individual donations. **Expanding the Board of Trustees** The three new board members who joined in 2021 have brought a wide range of skills and experience to the charity. These skills have enabled us to improve administrative record keeping as well as outreach and the coordination of bulk mailing projects. They are also planning a trip to Ifakara in 2023 to visit the bakery and all the accounts receiving bread. ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: |Achievements against

Para 1.47|
Fundraising has been through the provision
of group talks, online and in person.
Additionally, the many friends of the Ifakara
Bakery Project provide freewill gifts, often
via regular standing orders, which enable
us to receive additional funds through Gift
Aid.
Individuals have also kindly undertaken
“one off” fundraising activities.| |---|---|---| |Investment policy and

risks facing the charity|Para 1.46|The principal concern continuing to face the
charity is the loss of leadership following
the death of its co-founder, Eugene
Schellenberg in 2021, as he managed
much of the administration, outreach and
fundraising of the charity.
However, thanks to the highly qualified
support of the Trustees the charity has been
able to continue its work and continues to
develop new methods to maintain the legacy
left by its founder which has brought
