Testimonials

"Ingrid (CIMA) thank you again so much for this amazing gift you have given us--both of your time and of your travel to Uganda. Even in this connected world, there is just no substitute for physical presence, especially in a place like Uganda."
Read more“I have tried to inch forward with the accounting principles but have had neither the time to spare when I am there nor the skills to do it properly. It has been so fabulous that you have had both. Thank you."
"I truly cannot thank AFID enough for what you are doing for the Ineza Children's Centre and the Ineza Parents' School. Ingrid's visit has been incredibly successful … I am so beyond grateful. This will make such a huge difference to their work in Kisoro, both on the practical level, but also just in terms of the vast amount of learning and the huge confidence boost that this has given the staff there.”

“Lauren and Adam were incredible. I honestly couldn't be happier with the placement and I share this feeling with Kunthear. There is definitely further work to do, and they were very constructive on helping with plans for how to ensure the systems and processes they have created are used regularly by our staff and built on in the future."

"Words are not enough to express how grateful we are for Jack and the support you have offered us as Kyusa... he delivered way beyond what I had anticipated. He has helped us set up a financial system that we can use with ease, it is free and allows us to generate financial statements in the easiest way. This is a huge step for us and we feel confident as we embark on this new year.
Read moreHe also helped me with setting up a financial model that we can use both to track progress as well as make projections that are both vital for regular reporting and grant applications. He also took me through the tool to understand how to use it while he is not here.
In addition to all that, he develop a financial management training tool that we are going to be offering as a training package. In other words he has developed a new product for us as an organisation. This is a life time value addition for us as a growing organisation.
In a nut shell, Jack is the best consultant/ volunteer we have had so far and I am deeply grateful for this partnership."

"Thanks a million. The support you provide organizations like ours truly is making a large difference. Thomas is absolutely exactly what we needed at this time. He is hard working, diligent, culturally very quick to adapt, flexible and clearly very technically sound....
Read more...He has already jumped in and helped us uncover some key areas in our model that we simply didnt see before. One being that one of the schools simply could never reach full sustainability even if at 100% student capacity. He has also already helped us hash out a leaner and simpler way to be showing and using our cash flow."

"We at Mothers' Initiatives Africa, take this opportunity to appreciate AfiD for sourcing for us a volunteer who is a Professional Accountant. On a similar note, I would like to thank Fiona for traveling that long journey all the way from Scotland to Uganda to volunteer with us and share with us the accounting knowledge that she had....
Read more..Fiona designed for us a simple Accounting system which is easy to understand and is of great use because now we are able to know our monthly incomes and expenditures, of which we could not keep track before. Many thanks to you Molly for connecting to us such a resourceful person. This volunteer placement has added value to our organizational work and therefore, we are so so grateful to AfiD and Fiona. May God's Blessing be upon you all forever."
