## **– SMILES TO TANZANIA REGISTERED CHARITY NUMBER 1171029** 

## **TRUSTEES REPORT FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDING 31st OCTOBER 2021** 

Once again, our fundraising activities during this past financial year have been severely restricted due to the Corona Virus Pandemic.  Normally,  a  large  proportion  of  our  income  is generated through Speaker Fees and our attendance at public selling events which unfortunately, we have not been able to participate in. This has meant that our main source of income has come from donations, E-bay sales and direct sales of hand made goods. 

We did however manage during the year to provide further funds  amounting  to  £1500-00  to  our  NGO  partners  for  the purchase of more school uniforms, exercise books and pens. We have received many photographs of the children who received these  items  and  who  will  now  be  able  to  gain  access  to education. 

Whilst there is still a vital need for funds to continue with the supply of Solar Lights to enable children to do their homework using a clean source of energy, lack of income has prevented from being able to purchase more of these in this past year. 

During this financial year we were also unable to provide funds for the Smiles Health Fund for the same reason. 

Despite  the  difficulties  we  will  continue  to  raise  funds  in whichever  way  we  are  able,  to  support  the  community  on Ukerewe Island, knowing that our efforts will certainly make a difference in both education and health.
