Title: Volunteer
Accountant
Our partner is an early education
centre based in Kibera, one of the most impoverished parts of Nairobi. Its core
programme is offering children between 6 months and 10 years old, including
those with special needs, a holistic education. Interestingly, it runs
programmes outside education, including income-generating projects to ensure
the financial sustainability of the school and to empower the mothers of
children attending the school.
We had two volunteers spend
considerable time with them in 2012 (During which our partner was in the
process of moving to much larger premises), and the purpose of their placements
were to ensure that the accounting/ finance function was sound enough to deal
with the move and additional donor reporting requirements. In addition our past
volunteers helped them move to Quickbooks.
This time we have been approached by
one of our partner’s funders to assist the accountant in producing accurate
reports for the projects they are funding. The purpose of your placement will
be to see how the charity has been getting on since the last AfID volunteers’
placements, more broadly, and then focussing on the funding/ accounting for the
specific projects.
This placement will start in January
2014 and a volunteer is required for three-weeks. There is the possibility of a
homestay during this programme should you be interested in this.
