Financial Oversight
How We Handle Money
As a young organization, we keep our financial controls simple and documented, so that every dollar given for a girl can be traced to her program.
- An annual budget is prepared and approved by the board before each program year.
- Income and expenses are recorded in a bookkeeping system, with bank reconciliation each month.
- Spending outside the approved budget requires board approval.
- Any board member with a conflict of interest declares it and withdraws from the related decision.
- Program budgets and financial statements are shared with funders and partners on request.
