Frequently asked
questions
Brian Busolo founded Duara and currently leads the company.
You can find information on our directorship and financials on companies house. You can also read our constitution. It explains our governance and laws.
Nope! Duara is not registered as a charity. We decided to be a non-profit only, as charity status limits the scope of work we can do as a development fund.
As a non-profit, we maintain flexibility while following the same financial rules as charities. No individuals can profit from Kwanda, and revenues can only be reinvested.
We'll keep revisiting this decision. We want to ensure we're in the best position as a development fund.
