|||||SORP reference|||
||||||This year the charity remained<br>consistent to||
||||||carry out charitable<br>activities based on the||
||||||strong foundations<br>established<br>from previous||
|Summary<br>ofthe main<br>achievefnents<br>ofthe charity,<br>identifying<br>the difference the<br>charity's<br>work has made to<br>the circumstances<br>ofits<br>beneficiaries<br>and any wider<br>benefits to society as a<br>whole.||||Para 1.20|years. The team remained<br>the same and the<br>projects and initiatives<br>remain the same. The<br>charity continued to deliver donations for the<br>intended<br>causes ensuring<br>high transparency<br>by<br>regularly<br>sharing project media updates<br>(i.e.<br>results ofdonations)<br>individually<br>to project<br>sponsors<br>and to the public via 6social media||
||||||platforms.||
||||||With the above, individuals<br>and groups||
||||||continued<br>to set up online fundraising<br>pages||
||||||themselves<br>for us to carry out charitable||
||||||projects on their behalf. This resulting<br>in||
||||||multiple<br>income streams without<br>requiring||
||||||extra fundraising<br>resource from the charity.||
||||||Similar to 2021,the charity matched the||
||||||income with similar level ofspending<br>towards||
||||||charitable<br>projects. Utilising existing reliable||
||||||implementing<br>partners<br>and robust governance||
||||||policies and procedures,<br>we continued to||
||||||impact and serve more need<br>eople.||





|The charity was able to educate many|more|
|---|---|
|people by providing<br>essential<br>literature|and|
|places ofstudy/worship<br>(i.e.Mosquesj|across|
|the most needy oflocations. We were|able to|
|build many water wells to provide||
|communities<br>with clean and safe drinking||
|water sources, and we also established|tree|
|farms benefiting the needy and the||
|environment.||
|The governance<br>policies were reviewed|and|
|implemented<br>to ensure procedures<br>were||
|followed. Furthermore,<br>efforts were made to||
|ensure staff and trustees took part in regular||
|professional<br>development<br>to ensure||
|compliance<br>and best working practices|were|
|embedded<br>in our work.||
|To increase efforts to ensure funds are|being|
|utilised for the intended<br>purposes, the|charity|
|continue to carry out random<br>inspections<br>using||
|independent<br>monitoring<br>officers to carry out||
|inspections<br>ofcompleted<br>projects and|ensure|
|the<br>are being used for intended<br>ur oses.||
