|Summary of the purposes of<br>the charity as set out in its<br>governing document|Para 1.17|1) To advance the Christian faith across<br>the nations by carrying out missionary and<br>outreach work and partnering with other<br>organisations who share this purpose.<br>2) To prevent and relieve poverty across<br>the nations by fundraising and provision of<br>items for people in need, partnering with<br>organisations in other nations as necessary<br>to achieve this goal.<br>3) To promote education across the<br>nations to enhance life prospects by<br>partnering with organisations in other<br>nations, who provide educational<br>opportunities, especially to disadvantaged<br>communities|
|Summary of the main<br>activities in relation to those<br>purposes for the public<br>benefit, in particular, the<br>activities, projects or<br>services identified in the<br>accounts.|Para 1.17 and<br>1.19|During 2024, the charity was able to<br>undertake increased activities in relation to<br>its charitable purposes, due to the<br>improved medical situation of one of its co-<br>founders and Trustees, Carol Maw, for<br>which we are very thankful.<br>The main activities undertaken involved<br>overseas trips by Carol and Alan Maw, to<br>maintain existing overseas partnerships<br>and to explore the possibility of<br>establishing new partnerships.<br>1) During May, at the end of a personal<br>holiday to Peru, Carol and Alan visited<br>Iglesia Vina la Molina (a Vineyard<br>Church plant in Lima) and were guests<br>of the pastor Rodrigo Parada and the<br>church for the day. This church already<br>has a link to Hull Vineyard Church, so<br>it was a great opportunity to talk about<br>future possibilities of taking a team out<br>to Peru in forthcoming years to support|





|||the projects the Lima church wishes to<br>develop.<br>2) During October, Carol and Alan re-<br>visited Romania to at last meet up in<br>person with the ministries Grassroots<br>Global has supported now for a<br>decade. Time was spent with the<br>Community Centre children’s ministry<br>in Medgidia, which now operates as<br>**Centrul Comunitar Medgidia**, a<br>Romanian charity. We spent<br>substantial time with the new director<br>Corina Arnautu to discuss again taking<br>a UK team out to Romania in 2025, to<br>give mission opportunity and support<br>the Romanian based team.<br>3) During the same trip as above, we also<br>spent time with Cindy Getchman, the<br>president of Stepping Stone Missions,<br>whose focus in Romania is now the<br>Safe House Project,**Casa Nissi**.<br>Grassroots Global has, alongside<br>many others, fundraised and<br>supported the building of this property<br>for many years, so it was fantastic to<br>visit the nearly completed property and<br>see how it was going to be such a vital<br>resource in the future, saving young<br>girls from being sold into prostitution<br>and from human trafficking.<br>All of the above projects and ministries are<br>centred on the Christian faith. This is the<br>ultimate motivation for why the people we<br>have the privilege to partner with, do what<br>they do, in devoting their lives to the great<br>needs of marginalised people. This is the<br>DNA of Grassroots Global and why we<br>exist.|
|---|---|---|
|Statement confirming<br>whether the trustees have<br>had regard to the guidance<br>issued by the Charity<br>Commission on public<br>benefit|Para 1.18|The trustees always consider the<br>Commission’s guidance on public benefit.<br>Within the scope of our purposes, we<br>would give regard to public benefit by;<br>a) Giving Christians from local churches in<br>our home city Hull, the opportunity to<br>participate in short term mission, so that<br>they were able to practically help people<br>less fortunate than themselves in another<br>country and demonstrate God's love in a<br>practical way.|





b) Supporting the overseas partner organisation, so that they receive resources and support from the UK and a supply of people to assist with their work on a short-term basis. 

## **Additional information (optional)** 

## You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: 

||<br>SORP reference||
|---|---|---|
|Policy on grant making|Para 1.38|Grassroots Global is a small charity which<br>does not have a policy on grant making nor<br>does it participate in any grant making<br>activities.|
|Policy on social investment<br>including program related<br>investment|Para 1.38|Grassroots Global does not have a policy<br>on Social Investment.|
|Contribution made by<br>volunteers|Para 1.38|As a charity, everything Grassroots Global<br>undertakes is on a voluntary basis. Two of<br>the trustees, Alan and Carol Maw manage<br>the activities undertaken to fulfil the<br>charity’s purposes during their spare time,<br>as both are in employment elsewhere.<br>Other volunteers contribute enormously to<br>the project by giving of their time and<br>finances to participate in mission trips and<br>to also take part in the charity’s fundraising<br>activities at home.<br>During 2024 we did not give any volunteers<br>an opportunity to engage in short-term<br>mission overseas as the activities outlined<br>earlier in the report were focussed on<br>building relationships with overseas<br>partners, to enable volunteers to engage in<br>short-term missions in forthcoming years.|





## **Achievements and Performance** 

||SORP reference||
|---|---|---|
||Para 1.20|**1) Overseas Partner Financial**<br>**Support**<br>Operating as a charity allowed Grassroots<br>Global to facilitate charitable giving to our<br>overseas partners, by individuals who want<br>to financially support organisations such a<br>Stepping Stone Missions. During 2024 we<br>received £800 of donations as a charity<br>which we were able to forward on whilst<br>also gaining the advantage of claiming Gift<br>Aid on these donations.<br>In May, we also made a £100 gift to Hull<br>Vineyard Church to support the overseas<br>mission trip to Bolivia and Peru in June 24.<br>This aligned with our hearts for South<br>America and our own ventures in<br>developing links on that continent for future<br>Grassroots Global mission trips.<br>**2) Partnership Relationships**<br>As already mentioned earlier in the report,<br>the main achievements of 2024 were our<br>partnership trips to Romania and Lima,<br>Peru, to maintain and develop relationships<br>to enable future activities in relation to our<br>charitable objectives.<br>**3) Promotion of partnering charities**<br>**via social media.**<br>We always share the news of our partnering<br>organisations as much as possible. Whilst it<br>is not always possible to measure the<br>impact that has on various audiences here<br>in the U.K. it undoubtedly raises the profile<br>both of Grassroots Global and our partners,<br>which contributes to people engaging in the<br>activities we organise.|

The only Fixed<br>Asset held by the charity is a laptop, however,<br>this was fully depreciated during 2023 and has a<br>zero net book value<br>The income to the charity was increased during<br>the year, by being able to facilitate giving to<br>overseas charities for UK based donors and<br>utilise associated Gift Aid on these donations.||
|Statement explaining the<br>policy for holding reserves<br>stating why they are held|Para 1.22|The charity does not have a specific policy on<br>holding reserves, however, within the current<br>small scale of our operations, there is the<br>objective of seeing the charity’s reserves<br>maintained at the current level so we have an<br>ongoing healthy financial position.||
