Once the charity identifies the beneficiaries and are satisfied that the project or activities which we plan to carry out is in furtherance of both our organization’s aims and the laws or regulations governing the project location; board members will take further step to carry out good due diligence and take enough reasonable steps to satisfy ourselves that the beneficiaries are genuine. Further steps will be taken to consider the appropriate risk associated with the project and its location.

The Board of Directors will sign a memorandum of understanding between the organization, communities and the beneficiaries to ensure that funds are recovered when not used for the purpose or used appropriately and reasonable steps taken to verify the proper end use of funds. The Board and its local staff will ensure that funds released by the organization are not used for non-charitable or illegal purposes by beneficiaries. The organization will draw up robust monitoring (such as receipts and invoices) processes that include recording of transactions, and ensuring that our staff are competent to undertake monitoring and any conflict of interest are dealt with properly.
