The system behind the numbers.
Small organizations are only as trustworthy as their processes. Here's how we keep ours airtight.
Every receipt
Our Treasurer reconciles every dollar. Tuition payments to schools, goat purchases from local sellers, training supplies. Receipts are archived for 7 years.
Direct payment
Tuition goes to the school, not through intermediaries. Goats are purchased and inspected on the spot. Funds flow straight to where they need to land.
Quarterly board review
Our board reviews every program budget and disbursement quarterly. Finances are reconciled monthly by our Treasurer, who has been with GVC since day one.
Field-team verification
Our Uganda team submits regular field reports: what was distributed, who received it, what the outcomes look like at 6 and 12 months.
