REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
Achievements and performance
The Andrew Grene Foundation aims to provide the possibility of ttansformational change to individuals in Haiti through its projects in education and microfinance. The Foundation is named in memory of Andrew Grene, who worked in Haiti as part of the United Nations peacekeeping mission and died there in the earthquake of 2010.
Despite continued severe political, security and economic challenges in Haiti over this reporting period, the Trustees are very pleased to report continued operations and strong performance of the Foundation’s secondary school and microfinance operation. The trustees are grateful to the foundation's exceptional local partners who have worked with courage and focus to deliver continued success against significant external headwinds.
The Andrew Grene High Schoo!
The Foundation built a secondary school in 2011, the Andrew Grene High School, in a part of Port au Prince that previously had no secondary school. The Foundation works closely with the school’s local management, who have responsibility for day-to-day operations. The foundation covers more than 90% of the school’s operating expenses with student fees making up the balance. The Foundation’s objective is to build a “light house” institution providing the highest quality education to its students. We believe we are achieving that objective.
In the academic year 2024/2025 the school had 257 full time students. Exam results were again exceptional with 85.71% of final year students passing the baccalaureate, compared to the Haitian national average of 44.96%
The Foundation continued to award University Scholarships to the School’s most promising graduating students enabling them to continue their further education. During this period the total number of former students being fully sponsored through university was 12 (4 by the Foundation and 8 by external donors).
The Andrew Grene branch of Fonkoze
The Foundation has a partnership with the well-respected Haitian microfinance organisation, Fonkoze. In 2012 the Foundation financed the construction of the Andrew Grene branch of Fonkoze in Aquin, on the south coast of Haiti, an area not previously well served by micro finance.
The branch is an important part of the local community, and in the year to June 2025, provided small loans to more than 2,300 clients (Solidarity, Business Development and SME) and had 4,482 Savings accounts, (Regular and Term Deposits) for very poor local women. The branch also provides classes in literacy, numeracy and basic business skills. We remain committed to our mission and are preparing to respond to the community’s needs once the country moves into recovery mode.

The purpose of the Endowment is to provide security that the Foundations commitments and objectives can continue to be met over the long run.
The Trustees report that the Foundation's administration, marketing, travel and other running costs during this period, continued to be covered by a donation from P3 Group Europe Ltd. The Trustees are very pleased and grateful that P3 Group Europe Ltd has pledged to underwrite worldwide expenses again in 2024/2025. This enables the Foundation to continue to deploy 100% of funds received directly to its projects on the ground.
The Trustees are encouraged by the stability and continued success of its projects despite the multiple challenges facing Haiti at this time. The foundation remains firmly committed to Haiti and providing the support its projects need in order to advance the objective of making a meaningful long-term difference to the lives of those it serves.

Reserves are held to provide security so that the Foundation’s commitments and objectives can be met for the foreseeable future. The Trustees expect these funds to be largely expended in future years.

Statement of Trustees' responsibilities (continued)
Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law, the Trustees have elected to prepare financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law) including FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland. Under company law the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period.
In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
e — select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently e observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP FRS102
-
e make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent
-
e prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy, at any time, the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
In preparing this report, the Trustees have taken advantage of the small companies exemption in Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006.

Basis of independent examiner's statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a comparison of the accounts with the accounting records kept by the charitable company. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as Trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair' view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
