## **Achievements and Performance** 

||SORP reference||
|---|---|---|
|Summary of the main<br>achievements of the charity,<br>identifying the difference the<br>charity’s work has made to<br>the circumstances of its<br>beneficiaries and any wider<br>benefits to society as a<br>whole.|Para 1.20|This was the third year of the charity’s<br>existence.<br>As per previous year, initial efforts were<br>focused on finalising the opening of a bank<br>account, which was completed in May-24.<br>The two Trustee meetings focused on the<br>development of the charity’s giving strategy,<br>continued efforts into opening of a bank<br>account. The giving strategy discussions<br>primarily focused on further development of<br>the cause allocation framework. Calls were<br>held and emails exchanged with the<br>organisations we have previous and / or<br>subsequently given to, Raise and SCL.<br>Further discussions took place over email /<br>Whatsapp, which included the decision to<br>make a donation to Founders Pledge in light<br>of the USAID funding cuts (payment made<br>at the start of Apr-25 so in the following<br>financial year).<br>Raise operates a matching scheme for<br>student donors to the Against Malaria<br>Foundation. Donations to Raise from<br>students are equally matched by donors (or<br>sometimes doubled), offering the students<br>the opportunity to know their giving is going<br>even further. We agreed to further support<br>Raise in the coming academic year<br>(payment made in financial year 25-26).<br>SCL researches protest strategy, seeking to<br>determine the ultimate effectiveness of<br>campaigns depending on tactics<br>implemented by participants. It seeks to<br>transmit these findings to relevant groups on<br>various issues (eg climate). We decided to<br>hold off on further funding at this stage,<br>having provided funding in the prior year.<br>Operations at the CIO continue to move<br>slowly, despite finally opening the bank<br>account. We continue to be constrained by<br>the limited time availability of all trustees.|
