What your organisation does
The charity's objects are achieved through helping to provide a capital resource which in many cases, is very significant in maintaining parochial structures in areas of deprivation or sparse population. In providing resources to non-parochial organisations, the charity assists the church in working on the island and overseas in areas such as
poverty relief, education, aid to refugees and help to many people dealing with other social, health and spiritual problems. The activities are principally that of acting as trustees to hold property and other investments for dioceses, parishes and other organisations of the Church of Ireland operating mainly in Northern Ireland. In the bulk of cases, monies are received by the Trustees from donations or bequests and, following investment, the net income therefrom is repaid to the parishes/dioceses or other church bodies under the terms of the trust documents.
