While Bhubesi Pride Foundation typically targets annual income generation in the range of £200,000, this has been a difficult year for income generation. The deliberale and necessary focus on strengthening the charity's foundations - across governance. strategy. fundraising. partnerships and operational alignment with BPF Malawi is seen as critical to responding to the more challenging economic environment. This rebuilding phase has required signrficanl time. energy and resource from the executive team and Iruslees. The Trustees and exec team are confident. however. that these investments will support stronger and more sustainable income generation in future years. Growth in Malawi-based Income Encouragingly, there has been strong progress in incorne generation directly within Malawi through the work of BPF Malawi. During the year, the Malawi NGO secured and delivered several important funding partnerships- Adidas Foundation - £43.368 per annum as part of a three-year partnership Hilden Charitable Trust- £4.336 per annum as part of a two-year agreement Youth Sport Trust International - £53.518 as part of a 4-year partnership worth over £350,000 The above income is not reflected in BPF'S UK accounts as BPF Malawi receives this income directly from these partners. In addition, BPF Malawi generated approximately £33.654 in income through its on- sile volunteer program. Ihis funding is also received into Malawi directly and nol via the UK charity. These developments represenl a signtficant step forward in diversifying income slreams and reducing reliance on UK-based fundraising alone. They also demonslrale growing confidence from international partners in 8PF's delivery model. impact and long-tem) vision. The Trustees view this as a critical shift towards a more balanced and sustainable funding model, where both the UK charity and Malawi NGO contribule to Ihe overall financial resilience and growth of Bhubesi Pride Foundation.
