Donor Assurance

Transparent reporting. Donor confidence. Grant accountability.

NGO & Donor-Funded Project Assurance

For donor-funded organizations, financial accountability is essential—not just for compliance, but for continued funding and program credibility. At MSM Chris, we conduct independent audits of donor-funded projects and grants to ensure funds are used as intended, records are accurate, and reporting meets both donor and statutory requirements.

Our Approach

We tailor our audit approach to each grant agreement, donor requirement, and project setup. Our team assesses internal controls, verifies expenditures against budgets, and ensures financial reporting aligns with donor guidelines. We also evaluate procurement processes, documentation quality, and performance against financial milestones. Our work complies with international standards on auditing and specific donor frameworks.

Enabling Accountability, Enhancing Impact

We help NGOs, CBOs, and implementing partners meet the high standards of donor-funded programs. Our donor audit services include:

  • Financial audits of donor-funded projects and grants

  • Verification of expenditure eligibility against grant agreements

  • Assessment of internal controls over fund management and procurement

  • Review of financial reports submitted to donors

  • Audit of cash management and fund disbursement processes

  • Testing for compliance with donor-specific terms and conditions

  • Procurement and inventory audit procedures

  • Preparation of audit reports aligned with donor templates (e.g., USAID, EU, UN, Global Fund)

  • Support during donor review missions and follow-up on audit findings

At MSM Chris, we provide more than an audit opinion—we deliver assurance that donor funds are safeguarded, properly accounted for, and used to deliver real impact.
