Welcome to your NGO workspace! Let's set up your operational framework.
1. **Configure Settings:** First, go to **Settings** to set your organization's default currency and region.
2. **Add Donors & Partners:** Navigate to the **Donors & Partners** page. This is your master list of all funding sources and implementing partners. Add your key contacts here.
3. **Add Beneficiaries:** Use the **Beneficiaries** page to create a database of the individuals or communities you serve. This helps in tracking aid distribution and impact.
4. **Define Programs/Projects:** Go to the **Projects** page. Here, "Projects" represent your programs or grants (e.g., "Water Sanitation Project 2024"). You can link them to a donor/funder and set KPIs.
5. **Create Budgets:** On the **Budgeting** page, create a budget for each program or grant. Make sure the budget name *exactly* matches the project name for automatic expense tracking.
