NEW HOPE FOR CHILDREN

To raise and receive monetary and non monetary donations to help high risk children, with particular focus to support the work of Childrens Vision International Incorporated in Bogota, Colombia, South America.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
  • There are only 4 trustees
  • The Board composition appears to be very static

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period but has stabilised more recently
  • Income was lower than spending in the latest year
