To advance the Christian faith in accordance with the statement of beliefs appearing in the schedule hereto in such parts of the United Kingdom or the world as the trustees may from time to time think fit. B. To relieve persons, particularly (though not exclusively) children and young people who are in conditions of need or hardship or sick, so as to relieve the distress caused in such parts of the world as the trustees may from time-to-time think fit. C. To advance education in accordance with Christian principles in such parts of the world as the trustees may from time to time think fit. D. To promote and fulfil such other charitable purposes beneficial to the community in such parts of the world as the trustees may from time to time think fit. ## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** Jael Christian Women International ‘s main objective is to provide support for the abused, poor and the oppressed. Most especially those who have not experienced the Agape love and continuing renewal of heart, mind and life through our saviour, Jesus Christ. In carrying out our objectives, we tailor our resources to individuals who are in the above stated category. Thus, we recognise the difficulty of many struggling individuals and families. We have therefore sought to financially aid them, donate some clothing, food, and other needful resources and also assist in building the faith of Brethren affected by the difficult times through prayer-meetings and donating essentials. Consequently, we recognize the significant contribution made by volunteers and partners in pursuing our objectives. ## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** The Key strategies for the charity are to remain the same. Jael continues to pay for the ongoing running costs principally from its own resources. We continue to engage in famine relief, overseas aid and relief of poverty. Contribution to the charity’s fund has increased resulting from membership donations and Jael opening a charity shop in Croydon area Page | **3** during the covid-19 period, where people have been donating clothes and Jael sells them on a small scale bases. ## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** Most of the charity’s income comes from donations from individuals who support its aims. For the financial year ending 30 April 2024, the Trustees continue to use a manageable budget and encouraged the membership giving to increase which helped to ensure the funds 'break even' by the end of the financial year. ## **TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES** Charity law requires us as Trustees to prepare financial statements for each accounting year which record the receipts and payments of the charity for the year. We are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable us to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. We also have a responsibility to safeguard the assets of the charity and to take reasonable steps to prevent fraud or any other irregularities. ## **APPROVAL** This report was approved by the trustees on 16/12/2024 and signed on their behalf by: _________________________________ Silmara Batista Page | **4** ## **JAEL CHRISTIAN WOMEN INTERNATIONAL** ## **ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30TH APRIL 2024** ## **Statement of financial activities** |**Income from:**

~~ee~~| **Independent Examiner's Report** Page | **6** To the Trustees of ## **JAEL CHRISTIAN WOMEN INTERNATIONAL** ## - Charity number 1146198 I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of JAEL CHRISTIAN WOMEN INTERNATIONAL for the year ended 30[th] April 2024 on page 5 and 6. ## **Responsibilities and basis of the Report** The trustees of the charity are responsible for the preparation of accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). ## **Basis of Independent examiner's report** I report in respect of my examination which was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently, I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. ## **Independent examiner’s statement** I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records. I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. _______________________________________________ Mary Ofili B.
