Monitoring and Evaluation
CHAT's project staff have been extensively trained in the requirements of accurate data collection and reporting, and they regularly use internally designed tools, the Ministry of Health (MOH) registers and reporting tools. Additionally, the staff are familiar with reporting requirements of several donors, including the US government's PEPFAR program (via CHF), USAID (via FHI & AMREF), and The Global Fund programs (via CARE & AMREF). The sets of indicators used by these programs are sufficient and will be used to monitor the progress of the project in reaching set targets each month.
Projects collect indicators which are reported to the MOH on a monthly basis, and to stakeholders upon request. CHAT's financial records are carefully maintained, and external audits are conducted annually. Financial reports are compiled for stakeholders as required. The Trust managers use CHAT's financial and progress reports to assess the accomplishments of the health services and to identify and address any shortfalls.
CHAT has a Monitoring & Evaluation Plan in place, as well as a Strategic Plan and a Sustainability Plan. Governance, Human Resources, and Finance & Procurement policies are also in place.

Funding and Expenses
CHAT's achievements are directly related to the funding that is received in any given period. Variations in the above graphs are attributable to how much funding was available for a particular purpose during that year. For example, a year with a high level of TB funding, will see more people treated for TB. It's that simple.
CHAT aims to retain current funding and to locate further sources in order to ensure the sustainability of the clinic and to maintain the confidence of staff and beneficiaries in the continuation of CHAT services.
Our donors include private individuals (both from Kenya and overseas) as well as well-established charities, NGOs and the Kenyan government. To make a donation, please go to our Donations page.
