The work of CANHAVE Uganda is overseen by a group of volunteer trustees. The trustees appoint a volunteer board of directors in Uganda to oversee the Children’s Programme in Uganda. Each year the board of directors in Uganda submit, through the trustees, their proposed budget and request for funding support to the board of directors in Canada. These are carefully reviewed by the directors in Canada, prior to approval of the annual budget for CANHAVE.
CANHAVE Children’s Centre, Inc. in Canada arranges via wire transfer through our local Canadian bank to transfer funds to a partner bank in Uganda. The trustees of CANHAVE Uganda are notified of each transfer, and send to the board of directors in Canada confirmation from their bank in Uganda of the receipt of funds, showing the amount received and the conversion into Ugandan shillings.
