Annual Report 2010/2011
This year’s Annual Report 2010/2011 gives a clear picture of how the money entrusted to us has been used effectively and how lives have been transformed. We seek to be catalysts of change to make the most significant positive impact with the limited resources available. This means that we have been strategic in how we use our resources, limiting ourselves to addressing a few priority issues and those in greatest need. You can also view a short film of last year’s annual report here.

Evaluate us
It can be difficult to determine which charities are effective and accountable with the donations they receive. Dochas, the umbrella body for Irish development charities, provides some ‘key questions to ask before you donate’ on their blog. Or if you have 10 minutes you can rate us using an independent charity rating system here.
Effective and Accountable
We are indebted to a wide variety of churches and individuals in Ireland whose generosity and compassion make it possible for us to respond to the needs of the world’s poorest people. Tearfund is also funded by the Irish government and other trusts and foundations. We use our finances as effectively as possible and have consistently maintained low administration costs in order to ensure help reaches those in need. This is also made possible through the support of enthusiastic volunteers who raise funds, pray, work in our office and share our vision with others.
Institutional Funding
Tearfund Ireland is a trusted partner of Irish Aid (the Irish Government overseas aid agency) and is currently in receipt of a multi-annual grant for HIV prevention in Malawi.
We also receive grants from Bishop’s Appeal (Church of Ireland), Electric Aid (ESB) and many other trusts and companies. If your trust or company is interested in partnering with us on a specific project then please .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).
