OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and Aims
Tuesday's Child provides humanitarian relief to children living in countries ravaged by war and extreme
poverty.
The charity fundraises to support children exhausted by war and famine. Food aid, clean water, education,
health-care and other essentials for daily living e.g. clothes, Shoes, blankets, hygiene items are priorities.
Recreational activities for health and well-being of children traumatised by war are also provided.
Tuesday's Child was inspired during a visit to Medjugorje in Bosnia Herzegovina in May 2006 and founded
in March 2007. Medjugorje is a fountain of grace and a light of the world. It was here that Our Lady first
visited six children asking for prayer and fasting for peace in the world and calling people to turn back to
God. The first children the charity supported attended Sunce school Mostar, Bosnia Herzegovina. The
harity blossomed and has since helped many children in different parts of the world, thanks to Our Lady of
Medjugorje.
Children supported through Tuesday's Child are from different countries and faiths. Since 2007 Tuesday's
Child is blessed to have provided humanitarian aid to children in.. Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bolivi4 Brazil,
Chile, Congo DRC, Egypt, Grenada, India, Israel, Kenya, Palestine
Gaza and West Bank, Pakistan,
Nigeria. Philippines, Syri4 Sudan, Ugand4 Zambia and Ghana. Child boat refugees rescued in the
Mediterranean have also benefited. In each place, Tuesday's Child partners with catholic missionaries, with
good local networks.
Tuesday's Child aims to respond to humanitarian disasters caused by war, famine, poverty, climate change
and human trafficking. Emergency appeals include.. the war in Gw the war in Syria and the war in Ukraine,
Pakistan floods, Philippines typhoon, Chile landslide, plight of boat refugees rescued from trafficking boats
in the Mediterranean.
Children benefiting from funds for this financial year (l April 2024 31 March 2025) live in Gazffj Syria,
Ethiopi4 Kenya and Uganda. Monies raised were used to provide support to:
Children living in war and poverty in Gaza
Children living in war and poverty in Syria
Children living in poverty in Ethiopia
Children living in poverty in Kissanda. Uganda
Children living in poverty in Nairobi, Kenya
Every child is made in the image and lik¢n¢ss of God. Every child has the God given right to life and the
right to live in peace and to be lov¢d. Tuesday's Child recognises the face of Christ in every child. The
dignity and rights of every child must be respected regardl¢ss of nationality, gender, faith or culture.
Tuesday's Child has witnessed the poverty and extreme hardship many children live in when meeting
children supported by the charity and lislening to the testimonies of children enduring terrible hardship.
Every child has the right to food, water, shelter, education, health-care and to be safe. Every child has the
right to play and to have fun. Every child has the right to a nationality and the right to freedom of religion.
Every child has the right to be safe and to bc protected.
Tuesday's Child has witnessed the ravages of war on children and the devastating impact on their lives and
their families. War is absurd, our world needs the gift of peace more than ever. Tuesday's Child also
organises faith events locally to pray for peace inviting children in different countries to unite in prayers for
peace. Proceeds of prayer booklets, cards and Christmas and Easter cards go to humanitarian support of
children living in areas of the world who have no peace.

Tuesday's Child has also witnessed the plight of children and young people who are trafficked. We have met
young migrants rescued from the Mediterranean, listened to their stories and funded catholic missionaries
helping them. We have also witnessed the terrible suffering of children in Gaza and the West Bank because
of their ethnicity and have met with children who have been shot or injured in bombings and laler died of
their injuries in Gaza and Egypt. We have also met babies and children in paediatric hospitals in Gaza
refused transfer for urgent medical treatment because of their ethnicity. A charity trustee has also listened to
the testimonies of children in Gaza who watched as their parents and grandparents were murdered in front of
them and children injured in the deliberate annihilation of civilian families. Tuesday's Child has also met
with children prisoners imprisoned in the West Bank in Palestine and listened to their harrowing testimonies
of torture.Tuesday's Child has also supported missionaries caring for Jewish children with disabilities living
in Israel.
Tuesday's Child upholds the dignity of life of the unborn child. Every child has the right to be born. Whether
a child is in the womb or outside the womb does not change their humanity or the truth that they are a living
and growing human being. The only difference between us and a child in th¢ womb is time. The womb
should be the safest place in the world for any ¢hild. War zones are also dangerous places for little babies in
th¢ womb. Mortality reports on deaths of children killed in war do not include babies living and growing in
the womb who died when their mothers are killed.
Peace for every child bom and as yet unborn.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
RISK MANAGEMENT
Tuesday's Child has a governing document (6 March 2007), a deed of trust and constitutes an unincorporated
charity. The charity is not a business and retains no paid employees.
All monies received into the charity are lodged and accounted for with good rccord keeping of inputs and
outputs for monies received by- bank counter, online and in the post. There were no public collections this
year given the pandemic and need for social distancing and keeping volunteers safe. Otherwise all monies
collected are double counted and signed.
International transfers to woject areas are completed by two trustees and sent into established accounts of
missionary partners. All transactions go through the charity account.
Tuesday's Child also requires good financial reporting from missionary partners with updates on money
expenditure and reports. We find that reporting from partners even in areas of war is excellent. All monies
are spent following local needs assessments on the ground by charity partners who are best placed to assess
greatest need and best use of funds. Field visits have also offered the opportunity to view work firsthand e.g
Gaza, Kenya.
There have been no untoward events against the charity in the current period. In th¢ event that any untoward
events occur of detriment, these will be reported to r¢levant authorities.
Tuesday's Child is strictly humanitarian. The charity has no political affiliation. When invited to give
interviews by local media OUT policy is made clear beforehand. Social media plarfonns used by the charity
are also monitored.
Tuesday's Child is not sending volunteers to work in project areas cuffently given risks of places we are
helping childreT] in. Trustees may travel if the Committee considers it safe to do so and if before they are
willing to self-fund the cost of travel.
The trustees are fully aware that the nature of the work in which the charity is involved can bring with it a
high level of scrutiny to ensure that all activities are fully compliant with funding rcquirements and,
therefore, beyond reproach. We endeavour to m¢¢t comply with the highest of standards of governance on
the basis that ajl rnonitoring and evaluation of project delivery dernonstrates achievement of all funders
obj¢ctives and that funders, audits and vouching of financial expenditure and the independent examiners
report confirni compliance with both probity and regularity in the use of monies received.
