Abstract:
This study assesses the Noncurrent Assets Management and its impact in enhancing broader outreach to beneficiaries at the Save the children foundation Programme in DSM in Tanzania. The study looked at how the NGOs invest in building effective Noncurrent assets management and how this helps then in achieving more efficiency in serving the needy societies. Though the core activities of the NGOs is spending the donors funds in donating to projects that are set to alleviate different social problems in the country but the need for Noncurrent assets to enable performance of those funds in reaching the subjective societies remain of utmost importance. The idea behind the Noncurrent assets management in NGOs is to ensure that the NGOs are well resourced to meet their transport and other office requirements at the reasonable efficiency and cost which shall lead to reasonable outreach to beneficial societies. The study was further to ensure the donor funds are used for the intended needs but not for covering the unnecessary costs of transport and other costs associated with ineffective Noncurrent assets management that leads to outsourcing for the services of the assets. The study drew attention to two significant areas; how do NGOs invest in Noncurrent assets management and how does that help them achieving to serve the broader beneficiary base taking into consideration that the effective Noncurrent assets management will ease the operations at the field offices from the head office meanwhile will provide faster reaches to the field offices at the reduced costs of operations of which could boost investing those funds in donations to needy societies in the struggle to eliminate the problems of maternal and child mortalities.
