[edit] Structure
The organisation gives addresses in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Jersey and its International HQ in Wiltshire, England.
In the UK the work of Barnabas Fund began under the auspices of another registered charity in 1993, and in 2000 became an independent charitable incorporated organisation[citation needed] ('Barnabas Fund' charity number 1092935) with an income of over £10million, the main fund has 46 employees and 389 volunteers.[1] A second charity 'The Barnabas Fund' (charity number 271602) holds a contingency fund for the first of almost £400,000.[2] Within the UK the group is also a registered private, limited by guarantee company (company number 4029536).[3]
In the United States the organisation is registered as both a company (Barnabas Fund Incorporated[4]) and charity[5] but operates under the name 'Barnabas Aid'.[6]
Barnabas Fund's international director is Patrick Sookhdeo who in turn is linked to Rosemary Sookhdeo and Yusufu Turaki as authors publishing via a US operation named Isaac Publishing.[7] Patrick Sookhdeo is also trustee of Servants Fellowship International.[8]
