Beginning with a Cholerd Outbreak in January, and the closure of all schools for six we¢ks. In parallel th¢ failed rainy season resulted in a severe lack of power, as much of Zambia's electricity is generated by hydropower, with daily outages nationwide of up to 23 hours. Severe water shortages compounded the County's problems and annual infiation for a time Tan at As in previous years the successes achieved against such a challenging backdrop is testament to the commitment and hard work of our local partners and team, and our support¢rs. Learning Centre The Leaming Centre received over 40,000 educational visits compared to 37,000 in 2023 74 schools were supported during the ycar. more than double the number in 2023 Land purchased to facilitste the expansion of the Learning Centre and to protect the integrity of the site Construction of a n¢w Safe House for 30 wls. Water collecting and harvesting systems installed to help protect against futur¢ water shortages Expansion of sports faciliti¢$, including a new fitness gyrn, netball pitch and voll¢yball court Construction of a new classroom including a new teacher's office and a medical room Student sponsorship progran]m¢ 131 students supported, including 43 in higher education with nine new graduates. Over 1,000 approaches received from students needing support for hlghcr education Educational trip to Victoria Falls and Lake Kariba for college students. For many of the students this would have been the first lime they will have travelled beyond their local area. The trip is an invaluable part of th¢ir learning. The generosity of our sponsors meant we were again able to provide sponsored students and their families a small Clrislmas (e.g. a bag of mielie meal) The Baraka Girls, Safe House. Maamba Land acquired to develop the complex. The plan is to d¢v¢lop a new Learning C¢ntre. Schools Several construction projects were completed, including: o Mount Camel School, two new classrooms o Ndili School, one new classroom Willian Reid School, two teacher's houses o Lukanga School, a toilet block
BARAKA COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS (A Company limited by guarantee) Report of the Tru8tae8 and Directors contlnued Laos Support continued for the Nong Kiaw and Nan Learning Centr¢s and the Ou Book Boat. A new water system was installed at Houy Hoy village on the banks of the Ou river. In the same village we also supported a project to renovate the village primary school, building new classrooms and a toil¢t block. Morocco Our support is focused on the mountain village of Tigbza. Baraka has a connection with the village, Tighza is where Baraka was founded nearly 20 years ago. Recovery following the September 2023 earthquake has moved slowly with villages unable to start rebuilding until government approval was in place. Due to the enonnity of the devastation this has taken time. Later in the year we were thougb finally able to start to disburse funds raised and support 13 families to begin rebuilding their homes. Further information For pictures and more inforniation on any of our projects visit our Facebook page. our Instagram page or our website at: www.facebook.com/BarakaCommuni www.Insta www.barakacommuni Partnershi artncrshi .com Fundraising Activities Fundraising during 2024 mirrored the upward trend of 2023 with our income surpassing £500.000 for the first time. Funds raised come from a combination of loyal support from long terni donors via foundations and individuals with some support coming from the COorate sector.

FINANCIAL REVIEW Outcome for tbe year The transactions of the charity are summarised on page 12 of the financial statements. The charity had total incoming resources for the year to 31 December 2024 of £540,925 (2023 £451,704). Total expenditure in the ycar amounted to £477,421 (2023 £387,65(I). This resulted in an ov¢rall surplus for the year of £63,504. (2023 surplus £64,054). Much of this surplus is restricted and attributable to receiving funds in advance for the ongoing activities of the Organisation in both Zambia and Laos. The charity has total reserves at 31 December 2024 of £301,429 (2023 £237,925). These compris¢ unrestricted reserves at 31 December 2024 of £126,552 (2023 £113,475) and restricted Teserves of £174,877 (2023 £124,450). Reserves Policy The lev¢1 of free r¢serv¢s held seeks to strike the balance between implementing the BCP strategy, having the capacity to react to unexpected opportunities, and maintaining the level of resources necessary to safeguard the continuity of the chan'ty for the time needed to take action if income falls below expectations or if there are unexpected or unforeseen operational costs. The Trnstees consider that a target level of free reserves in the order of £1 00,000 is currently appropriate for the cl)arity. The amount of fr¢e T¢s¢rves at 31 December 2024 is £126.522. 6. FUTURE PLANS Zambia 2025 will see Baraka continue to grow our partnership with Baraka Zambia with an ambitious and exciting plan.
