Governance
Good governance of an NPO is vital because NPOs exist for the benefit of the community at large and are largely funded by donations. As a Christian NPO we have a mandate to steward well all the resources we have, and provided services in a way that honours God.
Oversight is provided by a management board.
The responsibilities of the board include:
-
ensuring that projects and programs remain in line with the vision, mission and values
-
raising awareness of the work of MercyAIDS
-
raising prayer and practical support
-
raising funds through donors and events
-
ensuring accurate accounts of donations and expenditure are kept
-
ensuring that annual reports are submitted to the DSD
