How We Work
With vast experience in the social sector, we have fine-tuned the process of identifying, monitoring and evaluating the programmes we directly implement or support. This is to judiciously disburse funds and track their work and impact.
Initially a need assessment is conducted, which leads us to a viable structured programme that can address the challenges on the ground. We discuss and work with all stakeholders to ensure the desired outcomes are achieved. The programmes achieve a level of sustainability that enables them to carry out the project activities after the grant period is over.
