Charitable Trusts
How Charitable Trusts can help
As a grant making trust, you will be interested to know:
RNCF receives no government funding, and relies entirely on self-generated income and the generosity of supporters to continue to undertake its valuable work.
These are challenging times for all charities, and there are growing numbers of children who desperately need our help.
Our target within 5 years is to increase from 350 to 500 the number of disadvantaged young people we support. To enable this, we need to find a further £400,000 each year.
We are a very cost-effective charity with a small team and low fixed costs. Our endowment enables us to guarantee that every single pound raised in donations goes straight to paying school fees for vulnerable children. We also leverage all donations at least seven times with the help of school bursaries and other charities. Thus, a £1000 donation funds a term at an independent boarding school and £3000 covers a whole year. We commit to supporting these young people for the duration of the schooling if required, often up to 10 years.
A donation to Royal National Children’s Foundation makes a difference because:
- The costs of the charity’s small staff team, and all overheads are covered by our own self-generated income.
- Our endowment guarantees that every pound raised in donations goes DIRECTLY to grants for vulnerable children.
- Each donation is leveraged at least SEVEN times when we raise partner funding with schools and other charities.
- Our commitment of support to vulnerable children is not a short ‘fix’ it is for the long-term – usually up to the age of 18.
In order to continue our work with vulnerable children, we rely upon the encouragement and support from Charitable Trusts.
We are grateful for the generous support shown to us by the following:
Sofronie Foundation The Wolfson Foundation |
The Worshipful Company of Fishmongers |
