\nA need for basic accounting:<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n
Last year M-Lisada, our partners in Kampala, Uganda who care for 150 vulnerable street-children were accounting with paper and pen. \u00a0As a direct result of working side by side, they progressed to using spreadsheets and now to computerized systems. \u00a0Quick books training and software was funded by GoPhil for M-Lisada staff Jane and Ronah. On our recent trip, Tracey helped Jane set up her accounts in Quickbooks. \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Next step:<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0Finances for major programs will be managed using separate accounts to help day to management of funds.<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Special Thanks<\/strong><\/span>: to Alex Berberich who recently started the\u00a0Hugh Berberich Music Education Memorial Fund\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>in honor of his father who was an accomplished musician and composer. \u00a0Recent funds raised for this Hugh’s Memorial Fund will help offset the shortfall Tracey and Jane found in M-Lisada’s general education fund for the children.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Prioritizing needs–as important as Identifying needs…<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
Spending time with Magdelyn, a nurse at M-Lisada, Lydia begins the process of assisting them with creating a budget for health, a critical need for children who suffer with HIV, malaria and chronic coughs.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The process first required\u00a0<\/span>identifying what was needed–basically cataloguing what was left in the medicine cabinet! \u00a0Then Magdelyn\u00a0<\/span>gathered prices for what was on the wish list.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Problem:\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>T<\/span>h<\/span>e total was way beyond what they could reasonably fundraise for…<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Action:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0A need to p<\/span><\/span>rioritize based on critical need<\/span><\/div>\n
Result:<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0An accurate financial figure and list of what is needed, listed in order of priority, for their next fiscal year’s Health Needs. \u00a0We are looking for\u00a0monthly donations of $50.00<\/a>to meet these important needs.<\/span><\/div>\n
