"From our team's perspective, having AfID volunteers work closely with our staff have significantly improved our business.  We now have improved processes, a greater level of accountability and transparency to donors, and the systems put in place mean we're now managing the entire organisation so much more efficiently.

Best of all, our staff have improved their confidence in implementing financial processes, and they gained fantastic professional development as a result of receiving mentoring and support from the volunteers.  AfID and their volunteers have completely exceeded our expectations and we couldn't be more grateful for the support we have received."
