Found on their website or registration record (Charity Commission, OSCR, Charity Commission of Northern Ireland, sometimes IRS 990 Form) a trust’s annual accounts hold a wealth of information for a fundraiser – what they support, when they meet, how much they give per award, who they’ve given to, their trustees, and governance structure. It can also give insight into the history of the trust and its founder and any future plans (such as reduced giving or winding up plans). If you have no other information sources, the accounts should provide enough info to help you make (or not make) an approach to a trust. #TrustFundraising
