Monitoring progress and transparency of projects
|
 | Each project is selected after on-ground study of the work required, the expertise of the charity involved and the track record and transparency record of that charity over the years.
|
| Each of the projects has creative involvement by RRF’S own volunteers in the city concerned.
|
| Each project has day-to-day involvement by these volunteers in terms of ground based work, administration and monitoring.
|
| Each project is additionally monitored by RRF project Coordinators based in the United States on a online basis.
|
| RRF insists on usage of its in-house developed software ASP application to monitor the progress of each project online – in terms of funding, progress of the children, pictures of the children, direct communication with children, online tracking of expenses etc.
