Transparency

Our Commitment to Transparency

At Quest Compassionate Education, we believe that transparency is the foundation of trust. We are committed to being open, honest, and accountable in everything we do, from how we allocate funds to how we partner with local communities. Transparency ensures that we stay true to our mission and values while building strong relationships with our supporters, donors, and the communities we collaborate with.

Charity Registration Status

We began Quest Compassionate Education as a charity on 8th November 2024, and we are currently awaiting formal registration approval. Our application is in progress, and we will update this page with our registration status as soon as it is confirmed. In the meantime, we are already implementing our programs and continuing our work in Cambodia, staying true to our mission.

How Funds are Used

We are committed to using every donation to maximise our impact in the communities we serve. Here’s how we allocate the funds:

Teacher Training: Investing in training local teachers to create jobs and provide high-quality education.
Educational Resources: Supplying underserved schools with the necessary materials, tools, and technology.
Community Support: Funding programs that improve animal welfare, wildlife conservation, and access to education.

A detailed financial breakdown will be available in our annual report, which we plan to publish after our first year of operation.

Quest Compassionate Education is led by a team of dedicated individuals with years of experience in education, community work, and nonprofit management. Our leadership team includes:

Lee Fox-Smith, Founder and Director

Together, we oversee the charity’s strategic direction, ensuring that every program and initiative aligns with our mission and values.

Annual Reports and Financials

We are committed to transparency in our financials and will publish an annual report detailing the charity’s financial status, impact, and the outcomes of our programs. Our goal is to provide clear reports on how funds are allocated and provide evidence to show the impact of your donations.

Once our first year of operations is complete, we will release our financial statements and a comprehensive report on our work and progress.

Partnerships and Accountability

We collaborate with local communities, educators, and organisations to achieve our goals. Our partnerships are essential in ensuring the success and sustainability of our programs. By working together, we can maximise our collective impact on education, conservation, and community development in Cambodia.

We are also committed to upholding high standards of accountability and ensuring that every project is carried out ethically and with respect for local cultures and needs.

Future Plans

As Quest Compassionate Education grows, we will continue to refine our transparency efforts. We will publish annual reports, provide regular updates, and ensure all stakeholders have the information they need to understand and support our work. Our commitment to transparency will remain a cornerstone of our organisation, helping us stay accountable to those who trust us with their resources.

"Throughout my experience working with many organisations in Cambodia, I've seen firsthand how powerful collaboration can be. Too often, I've witnessed missed opportunities for meaningful change due to competition for resources or a lack of willingness to work together. But when organisations come together with a shared mission, amazing things happen. At Quest Compassionate Education, we are committed to a collaborative approach, working alongside like-minded partners to solve problems and create lasting change. We believe that by sharing resources and focusing on the mission, we can achieve so much more and ensure a better future for the communities we serve."
