Since the Barbara Ward Childrens Foundation was registered by the Charity Commission in December 2001 the Trustees have reviewed more than 6000 grant requests and authorised grants of over 10 million to more than 420 organisations. The charity has made grants in respect of charitable activities throughout the United Kingdom but also around the world helping children in Barbados Belarus Cameroon Ethiopia Ghana Kenya Kosovo Malawi Nepal Peru the Philippines Romania Russia Tanzania Thailand Uganda Ukraine and Zambia. The BWCF is a small grantmaking body that helps the smaller nonreligious charities to serve severely disadvantaged children anywhere in the world where our grants are likely to make a real difference. To do this the BWCF focuses its support on financially healthy childrens charities where funding is not forthcoming from statutory bodies where incomes and fund balances are constantly put to good use and where administration overheads are kept to a minimum.
