Future Funding
IPPF continues to try to increase
longer term stability and income.
The current poor economic outlook
is a concern for IPPF. Whilst a number
of donors have committed long
term funding which goes some way
to reducing this risk, others have yet
to commit to future funding.
IPPF continues to work on diversifying
its funding base for both IPPF
itself and Member Associations
by increasing the number of
fundraising opportunities among
non-governmental organizations
including trusts, foundations, the
private sector and individual giving.
In 2010 a fund has been established
to assist Member Associations in
developing funding sources locally,
as discussed on page 14.
Disclosure of information
to auditors
The Governing Council members
who held office at the date this
report was approved, confirm that,
so far as they are each aware, there
is no relevant audit information
of which the charity’s auditors are
unaware; and each Governing Council
member has taken all steps that
s/he ought to have taken to make
themselves aware of any relevant
audit information and to establish
that the charity’s auditors are aware
of that information.
Thanks
IPPF thanks all its donors for
their continuing and generous
support. It also wishes to acknowledge
the immense on-going contribution
it receives from its volunteers, in
terms of the time, hard work, and
personal commitment. Volunteers
provide a huge range of help to the
organization from assisting in clinics,
sitting as Board members, acting
as peer educators, meeting donors etc.
Without this volunteer commitment
IPPF could not achieve its mission
or be the strong voice it currently
is within the field of sexual and
reproductive health and choices.
Approved on behalf of the Governing
Council on 9 May 2010.
