Para 1.20 | Rydym wedi parhau i gynnal ein gweithgareddau a chynnal ein proffil yn genedlaethol er budd addysgu’r cyhoedd, gan gynnwys pobl yng Nghymru ac yn y Wladfa, Darparwyd ysgoloriaeth trwy noddi taith cyfnewid rhwng Cymru ac Ariannin. Anfonwyd 2 weithiwr llawrydd (Swyddogion Datblygu’r Gymraeg) i hyrwyddo’r iaith Gymraeg mewn cymunedau yn y Wladfa. Y rôl oedd: Creu ac arwain gweithgareddau yn annog a chynorthwyo pobl i ddefnyddio’r Gymraeg yn eu bywydau bob dydd ac yn gymdeithasol. Mynychu unrhyw ddigwyddiad swyddogol, cyhoeddus a/neu diwylliannol ac i gynrychioli’r Gymdeithas ynddynt fel bo’r angen. Cydweithio yn agos â’r cymunedau ar lawr gwlad, ynghyd â’r cymdeithasau /mudiadau / Eisteddfodau Cymreig ac ysgolion. |

Para 1.21 | Mae’r sefyllfa ariannol yn edrych yn gref ond rydym yn hanesyddol wedi elwa ar dderbyn cymynroddion, wedi eu lleoli mewn cronfeydd cyfyngedig at bwrpas penodol. Derbynwyd yn 2024-25 cymynrodd sylweddol yn y swm £70,831, at bwrpas penodol. Fel arall, nid yw’r incwm o ffynonellau eraill yn sylweddol ac rydym yn ofalus wrth ymdrin gyda’r arian parthed gwariant cyffredinol. |
| Statement explaining the policy for holding reserves stating why they are held |
Para 1.22 | Mae rhan fwyaf o’r cronfeydd yn rhai cyfyngedig. Mae bob cronfa gyfyngedig o dan ofalaeth is-bwyllgor yn ymdrin gyda’r gwariant perthnasol. |
| Amount of reserves held | Para 1.22 | £191,788, fodd bynnag mae £183,454 mewn cronfeydd cyfyngedig at bwrpas penodol. |
