How we spend your money

As a small charity with a big reach we are grateful for every penny we receive, and are committed to spending your donation where the need is greatest.​ We rely entirely on donations from our amazing community of supporters to fund our vital work to educate and protect over 15,500 children around the world.

On average, for every pound spent by Children on the Edge, 84p goes directly to the children and communities we support. The rest covers our fundraising costs to bring in a sustainable, steady stream of income to keep our projects running smoothly, along with all our UK office overheads. 

In our UK office, we have 5 full time and 8 part time members of staff. To help reduce costs, we utilise volunteers wherever we can. 

We also have two office dogs, Lola and Zuma. They're great for morale but not so good with typing. They are unpaid.

MONTHLY GIVING

Our regular donors ensure that we can continue to support marginalised children living on the edge, as we have been doing for over 35 years.

Regular, reliable income allows us to plan ahead and budget effectively so we can support more marginalised children around the world. 

It means we can focus on doing what we do best, as well as respond to emergencies as they arise.
