SCHOOL FOR LIFE ROMANIA
Helping dis-advantaged and under priveleged children in Siret, Northern Romania. With our help, they can be integrated into the community rather than be institutionalised for the rest of their lives.
Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity has no formal reserves policy due to its small turnover, maintaining only approximately £1,000 for unexpected costs. The trustees acknowledge that the sponsorship base is unlikely to grow while project costs increase, and are working with their Romanian partner to secure the future of supported housing through the sale of property assets.
What the accounts disclose
“Our annual sale of Christmas Cards has continued and some money has been generated through our online Just Giving account from events including a fundraising Ceilidh. Dave Emptage generously left money in his will for School for Life / Scoala Pentru Viata to continue to fund the ladies in their care.” — page 3
