Responsible And Straightforward Haiti Non-Profit Societies

By Marissa Velazquez


As shown by the media, Haiti non profit and charitable organizations were active during the recent natural disaster. The Red Cross in particular has continued to help victims of floods, hunger, earthquakes and terror attacks. With such disaster preparedness, such organizations require adequate donor support to act quickly in the wake of a hurricane or tsunami. For this to happen, they must demonstrate accountability of funds to boost donor confidence. Ensuring that this aid reaches the destined people goes a long way in boosting this confidence.

Regrettably, the liberal sector has numerous impostors. Such charlatans use this aid for their own projects with little regard to all the suffering people. In fact almost half of the donor support is use for office administration and salaries. Non-governmental institutions that help the victims properly build their name since the givers gain confidence in their ventures. Additional confidence results from proper accounting techniques and reports.

The government has also failed to monitor this aid by providing little or no supervision regarding the whereabouts of donor funding in form of relief food, clothing and temporary shelter. Lack of regulation of such charities has led to ore suffering of tsunami, hurricane or flood victims who lose their homes as a result of natural disasters. In fact, these organizations have perfected the art of falsifying accounting information to fool the givers.

There has been an increase in support in the energy sector. Innovative individuals with the ability to create alternative fuels have been noticed by the international community. The reason for this sustenance is the ease of monitoring and testing of the end products. Charcoal dust has been converted to fuels in order to minimize waste and save our forest cover. It is therefore necessary to match givers with innovative people to make their dreams come true.

The belief that they are helping the giving community to spend their money is not only erroneous but irresponsible. They should understand that donors have spent their lifetime savings to support charity or make a positive contribution to the society. With the understanding that non-governmental organizations have unprincipled directors has worsened the situation.

The function of the state turns out to be even more significant when the parliament shifts the blame to the charitable organizations. The function of the aid is to care for the people who face natural calamities or safeguard the environment. Fund-raising is therefore not just about acquiring money from individuals who have an excess of it.

The compassionate sector does not provide cash for its own sake. Do not take for granted that they have surplus or immeasurable possessions. They offer aid since they have constantly thought of helping people to solve their problems. The administration must abstain from taxing the funds but develop assessment of donor maintenance.

Ecological matters must obtain their amount of backing as predetermined in the tender. If for some motive the funds were not exhausted, the recipient must communicate this and propose new projects. Whereas most societies have shot themselves in the foot, some have maintained a good relationship with their benefactors. Inadvertently, Haiti non profit institutions have received millions of dollars for maintenance.
