FINANCES AND REPORTING
Our Funding

Crete For Life is a small organization and it is financed entirely by generous contributions, allowing us to maintain full independence and focus on our mission. Our support comes from:
- Private individuals
- Foundations
- Local sponsors
- Fundraising events
MAXIMIZING YOUR DONATION
We believe that every donation should go directly to the cause. We have virtually no overhead because everyone involved in Crete For Life is an unpaid volunteer and we have no offices but are all working from home.
This commitment means:
- Your donation is not used for salaries, excessive marketing, or expensive fundraising events.
- Our operational costs are extremely low because professionals, local people, and businesses provide administration, accountancy, goods, and services to us at little or no cost.
- When we run fundraising events, the associated expenses are often covered by sponsors, maximizing the net proceeds for the children.
We also gratefully accept gifts-in-kind, such as food, clothing, and toys, which directly benefit the families we serve.
ACCOUNTABILITY
To ensure absolute trust and confidence in our work, our accounts are independently certified every year, even though this is not legally required. Our accounts are available on request.
THANK YOU TO ALL OUR SUPPORTERS!
Your confidence and trust in our work drive us to continue reaching out and supporting our most vulnerable children and young adults.
