STAYING TRANSPARENT

Governance

Being a philanthropic funding body, we are, every day, entrusted to safe-keep, monitor and ensure that the vital funds donated by visionary and caring people and organisations – are well spent, well monitored and impacts evaluated.

  1. Belief in the potential of children and young people
  2. Promoting partnerships; locally, regionally, nationally and internationally
  3. Encourage donor participation
  4. Foster the promotion of innovation
  5. All young people to have a voice
  6. Adopt the highest standards in governance, transparency and accountability
  7. Provide practical support and funding where it is needed the most.
