FRIENDS OF KENYA'S CHILDREN

The charity seeks to provide maintenance and education for the children and where necessary to assist also the communities and families in which they live and receive family care.

What the accounts disclose
“We will hold in reserve £6000 as being sufficient funds to provide the monthly fees for these children for a period of four months” — page 4
“It has been recognised that both trustees and the majority of supporters and volunteers are all ageing, it is essential we recognise this in our future plans. This will necessitate significant change to take place.”
