Finances
At Pestalozzi International, we believe that transparency and accountability are essential to earning and maintaining the trust of our donors, partners, the children in our programmes or our alumni. Every donation we receive is used to create lasting change in the lives of young people, and we are committed to using our resources as efficiently as possible.
Our professional finance and controlling teams ensure that we spend wisely, maximising the funds that go directly into our programmes and long-term impact initiatives.
In September 2024, Pestalozzi World and the Pestalozzi International Foundation merged to form Pestalozzi International, streamlining our operations and enhancing our ability to deliver impact even further.
How We Manage Our Finances
Professional Financial Oversight
Our controlling team ensures that every donation is managed responsibly, with regular audits and transparent financial reporting to ensure compliance with best practices.
Efficiency in Programme Spending
We are committed to spending as much of our budget as possible directly on our programmes, ensuring that your contributions are making a real difference in the lives of our students.
Sustainable Reserves
We maintain sufficient financial reserves to guarantee the continued operation of our programmes, providing security and stability for the children we support.
„We are fortunate to have the support of dedicated individuals and trusts who share an appreciation for our mission. We look to the future with confidence and ambition to increase the impact of the charity.“
James Haughton, CEO Pestalozzi International UK
