How we make sure our resources are used properly
Every euro, every bin bag and every volunteer hour you trust us with has to count. Here are the rules we follow, in plain words.
The framework
- We manage our finances in full compliance with Greek law for civil non-profit companies (AMKE).
- We follow the terms of every funder and corporate partner, as set out in our agreements.
- Every expense is booked only against a legal receipt or invoice and linked to a specific action or operating need.
- When buying materials and services we look for the best value and ask for quotes where needed.
- These rules are part of the onboarding of every new member of the coordination team.
Decisions and approval of expenses
- The twelve-member Board decides the annual budget and major expenses.
- The coordination team carries out the budget and reports to the Board.
- Nobody approves an expense that concerns themselves.
Financial reporting
- Regular internal tracking of income and spending against the year's budget.
- Progress, results and financial reports to every funder and corporate partner.
- Every action and every euro can be traced from start to finish.
- An annual report with results and financial figures, published on this site.
Open public information
- We publish how resources are split by area, where they come from, and our partners and supporters.
- We publish how we function: Board, circles and coordination team.
- Our impact (actions, volunteers, wildlife rescues) is updated live.
