Trustees Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2020
The trustees present their annual report and financial statement for the year ended
31 December 2020. The financial statements have been prepared on a cash basis.
Structure. Governano and Management
The Streetlight Trust was established on 4 February 2006 under a trust deed. The
charity is constituted as a Trust
The trust is managed by the trustees. There are no staff employed by the Trust. The
trust deed provides for a minimum of three tnjstees. There were seven Trustees at
the end of the year.
New trustees are appointed by the existing Twstees. All new Trustees are appointed
for an initial term of three years. During the year. Mark Adams, Helen Adams,
Malcolm Gale and lan Herbert were reappointed as Trustees. Later in the year, Helen
Adams resigned as a Tnjstee. We are very grateful for all of Helen's hard work as a
Trustee and her long-stsnding, dedicated, support for StreetlighL
At trustees, meetings. the strategy for Streetlight is agreed, finances and fundraising
are reviewed, along with the achievements being made with the funds provided to
Kanlungan.
During 2020. four Trustee meeting were held by Zoom. The Trustees dealt with other
matters via e-mail. In future the Trustee5 expect to have one face to face meeting a
year and conduct the rest of its meetings via Zoom in order to reduce our carbon
footprint
Objectives and activities for the Public Benefit
The objects of the Streetlight Trust as set out in its trust deed are "to improve the
lives of the poorest and most vulnerable children and their families in the Philippines
by making grants of money available to non-governmental organisations {NGO's)
operating with a Christian ethos.-
The Trustees have paid due regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public
benefit in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.
Achievements and perforniance
2020 was a highly significant year for Streetlight The impact of Coronavirus created
huge demands on the NGO that Streetlight supports (Kanlungan sa ERMA Ministy
5nc). Kanlungan needed additional support to enable it to respond to three
emergencies (Taal Volcano. Coronavirus and Typhoon Ulysses) and sustain its regular
programmes.
Streetlight's own funding came under severe pressure because of the cancellation of
most of the charity's fundraising events. We had to pivot our fundraising efforts
21Page

towards individual giving and our first ever Christmas Appeal. This was a matched
giving appeal (with the pledge fund provided by five Streetlight donors).
To maximise the impact of the Christmas Appeal, we relaunched our website and
created a simple, easy. donation experience enabling people to give using a variety of
giving mechanics including Apple Pay. We are grateful to Anna Barton for creating a
modern, vibrant website design at no charge to StreetlighL
KanlL6ngan operates in the metro-manila area in the Philippines, and njns projects
covering..
street education and child protection for street children,.
day centres for street children living in urban slums, where children can get an
education and a meal:
a temporary shelter and short-temi residential care centre for street children
who need counselling and support
long term residential care and training centres, one for girfs and one for boys-
after care to reunite children with their families, provide educational
assistance and help the parents tske care of the thildren..
social enterprises to provide employment opportunities for older children.
Because of the impact of Coronavirus, the coffee shop in the heart of Manila
had to be closed during the year. The farm growing coffee in Cavite province,
south of Manila remains open.
The grants made to Kanlungan are largely unrestricted to cover the core staffing
costs of the oiganisation, as well as utilities and food for the children. During the year
a number of restricted grants relating to three emergency responses ITaal Volcano,
Coronavirus and Typhoon Ulysses) were made. These are described more fully below.
The trustees ensure that the public benefit stated in the Trust's objects are being
achieved in several ways. Nomially, the prime means is from visits to see Kanlungan's
projects in action. These were not possible in 2020 because of Coronaviru5. Instead,
Kanlungan's Executive Director attended several of the Trustees meetings via Zoom.
The Trustees receive reports from Kanlungan and there is regular online and
telephone communication with the organisation.
The trustees are very conscious of the impact of climate change, especially on the
world's poorest people. We discussed how we can best mitigate the carbon impact of
travel to the Philippines to see Kanlungan's projects in action. The Trustees have
agreed a policy to carbon offset air travel with Climate Stewards who support tree
planting and other carbon mitigation projects in Uganda. Ghana and Mexico.
Resems Policy
The Trust regularly reviews its reserves policy. During the year, the reserves level was
maintained at £18,4(K) equal to two of the regular payments that are made every two
months.
31Page

In September, the reserves did temporarily dip below the minimum stipulated in the
F)olicy. This was because of the need to make additional grants to enable Kanlungan
to respond to the Coronavirus crisis. The matter was discussed by the Trustees and
wa5 approved given that there was a clear plan in place to build reserves back
The cash balance at year end was well above the minimum reserve at £37,045, split
£36,846 in the Unrestricted Fund and £199 in the Restricted Fund. The Trust also held
208 Barclays shares at a market value of £305. The shares had been left to Streetlight
as a legacy gifL
Financial Review Details
Coronavirus made 2020 a year like no other. Vtith the exception of the Annual Golf
Day, all fundraising events were cancelled.
However, individual support for the charity was amazing. In particular, there was
fantastic support for our first ever Christmas Appeal which surpassed all expettations.
We are truly grateful to all those who have supported Streetlight during this
challenging time.
Financial erformance= income
During the year, cash receipts totalled £70,311 (down 17% on 20191 and cash
expenditure £79,249 (up 13% on 20191. Underlying income (excluding Gift Aid) was
only down 6% (from £66,329 to £62,401) which was a remarkable achievement in a
year dominated by the CoronaviTUS.
As trustees, we have yet again been greatly encouraged by the remarkable generosity
and commitment of our supporters.
Indlvidual Regulargiving totalled £19,425 (down 5% on 2019). The number of
regular givers dropped slightly to 47 during the year.
Individual Slngle G(ving totalled £29.1￿5 (up an amazing 93% on 2019). This is
largely explained by the emergency Christmas Appeal which raised £22,462 from
individuals. We are so thankful for the generous response to the Appeal which
surpassed all expectation
Gtft aid of £7,910 was claimed during the year, a big drop on 2019, explained by the
fact that the Gift Aid claim in 2019 covered years.
Fundrnis¢ng events and activities were decimated by Coronavirus. Income of £1,147
was 92% down on 2019. Most of our main events with the exception of the Golf Day
were cancelled. But we are grateful to the Nightingale family whose lockdown plant
stall raised £855.
Dirert finoncial support from churches amounted to £1 1,656 {down 1 S% on 2019)
During the year, eight churches provided direct financial supporL three fewer than in
2019. We are grateful to all the churches for their financial and prayer support
41Page

We did not receive any legacy gifts (n 20201£1,366 received in 2019).
Other giviry totslled £449 (down 65% on 2019). One highlight was raising £66 from
Amazon Smile!
A further £720 of other Income was received. These were refunds on flights that had
been booked in 2019 for Trustee visits in 2020 that had to be cancelled because of
Coronavirus.
Financial erformance= ex
enditure

restricted funds.
Streetlight maintained its regular gimng of £55.2￿ to Kanlungan which is provided to
support staff salaries, rents, food and utilities. Additional gifts were made to support
various emergencies. The main gifts were needed to support Kanlungan's
Coronavirus response. mainly food provision for street communities whose incomes
were decimated by the impatt of strirt lockdowns in Manila. Gifts were also made for
emergency response to the Taal Volcano eruption which affected the Kanlungan farm
and boys home, and to Typhoon Ulysses which had a devastating impact on a
number of the street communities on Manila served by Kanlungan.
The grants from unrestrFrted funds included bank charges on the money transfers
amounting to £317).
There were no costs of fvndraisin9 events and ortivities during the year as the
Christmas Ball in Bletchley was cancelled.
Administmtlon costs of £312 covered costs of child protection and charges relating
to the costs of processing gifts on the new website. (Costs for the new website
