Public benefits
Ardfoyle Trust (‘AT’) makes grants of money to organisations and individuals working worldwide in furtherance of its purposes. For example, AT has supported Gideons International, the Northern Ireland Hospice in Northern Ireland, Child Evangelism Fellowship working in the Republic of Ireland, Wakisa Ministries in Uganda and YWAM Ministries
working in Brazil with street children. AT also makes premises owned by it available for charitable purposes For example, AT has made premises available to YMCA on a long lease at a nominal rent provided that it continues to observe the aims of its constitution. The benefit flowing from these purposes are: 1. The improvement of spiritual and emotional welfare of people across the world. 2. The provision of education to people worldwide who may not otherwise be able to access education providing enhanced knowledge and education for these people and consequently in their communities. 3. The improvement of physical welfare and health of people across the world. These benefits are demonstrated through feedback and reports given by the organisations and individuals to whom grants are made and who occupy premises made available. The trustees seek details of activities and projects being carried out by those organisations and individuals to ensure that funds will be used effectively and to the benefit of the public. The purposes outlined do not lead to any harm. The safeguard put in place by the trustees (namely to seek details of activities and projects being carried on by organisations and individuals who it is proposed a grant be made to) seeks to mitigate against any possibility of harm arising. The beneficiaries of the purpose are worldwide. For example AT supports projects in Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland, UK, Uganda and Brazil No private benefit is foreseen. It is not intended that any grant will be made to the trustees. There is a potential of a private benefit arising if a grant is made to an organisation based in Northern Ireland that subsequently works in a church or school (for example) attended by a member of the trustee’s family. The potential of such benefit arising seems remote and any such benefit would be incidental and necessary to ensure the benefit is provided to all members of the public.
