How are you funded and how much goes in administration costs?

Answer

We are funded by volunteers making contributions which cover all the trip costs and kind donors like you, who want to make a personal difference.  Our Overseas staff cover all their costs personally and several of our UK staff offer their services for free or a small stipend.  Our Chief Executive raises his own support and is free on board to the charity.  Our projects are funded as 100% of all money volunteers raise goes to the project they are visiting.  Where funds allow, the management team also allocate some undesignated funds to projects so as much as possible goes to help those we serve.  We strive to be completely transparent about our finances. Our approach is set out in our accounts and summarised under about us/financial-report.
