I want to help you.
But how????
Thankyou

I have been involved in audit of hospitals accounts which include review of accounting systems. If LR can give more details of exactly what is required I can assist.
But also I would suggest that they can acquire an accounting package called QUICKBOOKS it can tracks budget information as well as processing actual transanctions and thus producing budget performance report. This is the userfriend for a small organization, and also it is multi currency and multer user.

Hello Vincent-
I would love to talk with you more about this. I have some additional information I can share with you. I appreciate your offer to help.

Hi Jenni i wish to help. But how i can?
Better we can have a website and we can get some doctors as volunteers to serve for the community because there are some doctors who help for the community and some used equipments from Big hospitals.
Hi Ramchand-I would like to extend a warm welcome to the Kayole-Soweto village. We are pleased that you've chosen to join us. Arrow-Kenya currently does have a website located at www.arrowkenya.org. We hope to replace this with a new version that contains more complete and better organized information. We are currently in the process of working on editing the content to be placed on the new site. All of that information is located in a separate task.
We are definitely in agreement about getting doctors to serve as volunteers at the hospital. We would love that! AVIF, a volunteer organization based in the United Kingdom has agreed to help us try and make that happen. If you have any specific suggestions for us to follow up on in that regard, I would be very happy to hear them.
Again, welcome to our village, we are very pleased to have you.

Strategic Plan created by Bramuel for Arrow-Web Hospital 2007-2011
Bramuel listed out current sources of monthly income for the hospital as follows in the attached document.
This is a breakdown of common monthly expenses the hospital incurs.
Dear Bramuel,
I have gone through your budget document but seem income not included. Knowing the budget deficit is very important so as to have solid ground for asking support from donor communities. Otherwise, if you dont charge patients at all indicate income as zero.
My experience with other hospitals, is that critically analysed budget showing income, expenditure and deficit and reasons for deficit i.e. treatment of poor patients etc, can easily gain support from donor communities. Other donors can choose line item in the budget for example staff costs, drugs etc.
With kind regards
Vincent/Bramuel can one of you please email me what you have done so far so I can see it? It looks like there are attachments to your post, or maybe they are keywords, I'm not really sure of all the ins/outs of the new site yet. Anyway, if one of you would be kind enough to email me the document you're working on I would appreciate it.
Vincent thank you so much for your help with this.
