Principal activities Despite the enormous upheaval. the principal activity of the charity continues to focus on support, social. health and education, of the Jewish commvnily from Odessa by way of grant making to Tikva Corp. There remains in Odessa, despite the situation, a core Tikva team which continues its support lor the people who eilher chosen not to.leave, cannot leave or need lo be found. Background Our Children Identifying Children in Need Our children come to Tikva as young as new boms and stay until they are at least 16 year5 of age, emotionally and acadernically ready io be9in life in 15rael. or continue their studies at Tikva's University Program in Odessa. These bright and inquisitive thildren flourish in our care. despite the fact that most arnve with medical, psychological. developmental and social difficulties due lo their traumatic earfy experiences. Many of our thildren also have siblings and cousins vtho are reunited in our homes. Tikva strives to ensure that each child's needs are met so that he or she can develop into a fully functioning. self sufficient adult who is then able to become contributing member of society. Tikva has worked tirelessly since 1994 to locate Jewish children in need from the southern reglons of the fonner Soviel Union. Tikva reaches 25 regions throughout Ukraine. six regions in Belarus and 2 regions in Moldova. Tikva deal wllh three different types of'orphans, Orphans These chlldren do not have parents. They ara usually found In stale orphanages, separated from their brothers anij sisters. Social Orphans These children may have parents andl or living adult relatives. but they are neglecfful and abusive caretakers. The children often come lo Tikva after running away from home or being abandoned by a caretaker. Tikva serves in effect as a permanent foster home for these children, assuming all custodial responsibilities. A weslem stye or family based foster cafe system does not exist in Ukraine. Extreme Poverty These children have at least one parent or family member that would l•ke to take care of the child, but simply cannot afford lo give the child the basic necessities needed for survival. These children often slay in contact with their lamily even after arriving al Tikva, and continue to see them on weekends and holldays. Tikva employs a full tim8 Staff member who is In charge of locating orphans and other chlldren in need. 'Need' is defined by the same definition the Ukrainian government uses for admittance into State orphanage. Intake process . After the Child arrives at Ihe home. a doctor and a psychologist evaluate the child and a nurse and caretaker help the child adjust to the horne and sthool. After admission, most children stay in the home until they are at least 16 years old (end of the 1 Olh grade). Whilst the above background empirically explains the Tikva community and how it worked this work continues despite the war and once members of the community. and children in particular, have been idents'fied arrangements are rnade for evacuation to a safe haven Page 5

We are independent of the charitable company in a¢¢ordance with the eihical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial slatemenls in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other elhical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.
