Our Finance Accounts

We have spent over $8 million in direct grants on helping those in need in Romania, plus a huge amount of gifts in kind.

Our policy has always been to spend your financial donations quickly and not build up a large "reserve" of cash in the bank. We keep our administration costs very low.

Here is the summary of our most recent audited accounts (to March 2007) - which were submitted in Jan 2008

Mistake ?

No. That was deliberate.

Some people might see this as bad financial management. Well it might be for a commercial concern. But for a charity, we think it's the right thing to do.

This has been our policy for over 15 years now and - no doubt thanks to the grace of God - we're still going !

But it means we need your help and we need it now.
