  • Section 1 - Introduction:
    This section restates our mission and vision and explains how we go about achieving them. It summarises what we have achieved over the past ten years and over the past year, as well as laying out what we plan to do in the coming year. There is also a message from our new chairman, William Powlett Smith, and from manager, Caroline Horne, summing up how the year has gone for us and our partners. And finally there is up-to-date information about HIV in Zambia, explaining why, despite the severity of the epidemic, there is hope for the future.


  • Section 2 - Our Zambian partners: How can a team of six people in a small office in West Oxfordshire help over 8,500 Zambian children go to school? We do it by working with our partner organisations in Zambia. This section tells you about them and what they do.






On June 25th 2009 Cecily's Fund was awarded first prize by the Institute of Chartered Accountants for its 2007/08 Annual Report and Accounts. Judges commended our clearly stated vision and mission, easy sign-posting of the report and the fact that we make clear links between money raised and money spent. See News page for more details.

Cecily's Fund income and expenditure 2009

74% of our expenditure goes directly on charitable activities. Two trusts fund a large proportion of our running costs, so most of your donation goes to our work in Zambia. The rest is spent on raising that money and on ensuring we are accountable to our donors, partners and the young people we support. In 2008/9 we made a bigger investment in fundraising so that we could increase our overall income and support more children. The percentage spent on fundraising will therefore decrease in subsequent years.
