The Charity has adopted the Charity Commission’s own Constitution as per Model Constitution for a Charitable Unincorporated Association (Form GD3).
The Charity was established by a small number of individuals in the UK who had contacts in Kenya, especially Bungoma & Busia Districts of Western Kenya. The inaugural meeting was on 30[th] March 2007. Trustees were chosen because of their particular skills and knowledge already shown in other employment or life settings.
The Board of Trustees meets regularly, approximately every three months, throughout the year to receive reports on progress with Kenyan projects. During 2020 an extra Executive meeting was held as well as more on-line talks and meetings.
The Treasurer makes an extended annual visit to our projects in Kenya.
Accounts are also presented at all our meetings (real or virtual) where our expenditure and income are regularly monitored and Trustees make financial decisions after appropriate consideration including risk assessments.

Financial review
| Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves Details of any funds materially in deficit |
Any carry over in our annual statement of accounts is mainly used to top up fees and other personal requirements of children in education. We also have used financial reserves (any excess income over expenditure) for capital investment as outlined above. We have limited administrative costs and as one specific donor covers our costs for administration, we are proud of our record in transferring all monies donated to assist beneficiaries in Kenya. |
