Structure and Management

The Good Fund operates as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, governed by a board of three trustees who serve voluntarily. The charity has no paid staff. Governance ensures direct, impactful interventions that are community-driven and sustainable.

Activities and Objectives

The Good Fund's object is the prevention or relief of poverty by providing or facilitating safe, affordable, and sustainable housing for people in housing need or other related needs.

The charity works directly with communities experiencing poverty, focusing on single mother households and vulnerable families. Our approach combines housing with livelihood support — including livestock projects — so that the benefits of each intervention continue long after the initial grant is made. 100% of donations go directly to impact, with nothing spent on salaries or overheads.

Achievements and Performance

The 2025/26 financial year was a consolidation period. No new projects were initiated, and funds from prior periods continue to be held in reserve for future activity.

The ongoing impact from previous years' projects in Kigeme, Nyamagabe District, Southern Province, Rwanda, continues to benefit the families supported. Updates from local coordinators confirm that beneficiaries from earlier projects remain in improved circumstances.

Plans for the Future

The trustees intend to resume active fundraising and project delivery when resources allow, continuing the same model of providing safe housing alongside livelihood support for families living in poverty.

Public Benefit

The trustees have given due regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit. The Good Fund's work directly benefits people living in poverty by providing housing and

sustainable livelihoods. Unlike one-off aid, our interventions create lasting change — families supported in prior years continue to benefit from the housing, livestock, and income generated through those projects.

Financial Review

The charity received no income during the financial year 2025/26 and had no expenditure. Funds held from prior periods remain in reserve.
