DF draft objectives

From Tribewanted

Overview

This page will be used as a working document to list, discuss, comment on, and finalise the Objectives for the Tribewanted Dream Foundation Charity (TWDF henceforth).

Types of Objectives

The Charities Commission lists over 30 groups of example objectives covering a range of common charitable activities. A number of these could be considered applicable to TWDF. We should be careful of being over-ambitious, and avoid listing everything that could be done. Objectives can be changed during the lifetime of the charity, so a bit of focus in the early stages would probably be advisable, particularly as some objectives need to be backed up by independent expert evidence to support the fact they are charitable AND worthy.

The groups that we may be interested in are:

• Advancement of Education Objectives need to be specific stating who is being educated, and in what subjects
• Conservation of the Environment Guidelines / pre-requisites here are pretty strict
• Recycling The examples given are quite general
• Sustainable Development This covers environmental, social and economic development
• Urban or Rural Regeneration This is geared towards areas of social and economic deprivation.
• Young People This covers areas such as recreation, education, employment
