The Governing Council of SAMPARC functions as the core decision-making body responsible for steering the organization toward its mission of child welfare and community development. It plays a vital role in shaping SAMPARC’s strategic direction, overseeing the implementation of its diverse programs, ensuring progress is tracked and evaluated, and maintaining complete transparency and accountability across all levels of operation.
The Council ensures rigorous review and approval of organizational plans, budgets, audits, and reports, while also ensuring full compliance with statutory norms and the requirements of various donors and funding partners. It guides the organization’s values, vision, and long-term goals, ensuring that all initiatives align with the broader mission of empowering disadvantaged children and communities.
Each member of the Governing Council brings valuable expertise, insights, and networks to the table, contributing to the strength, sustainability, and credibility of SAMPARC. Their dedication ensures that all stakeholders—children, parents, community members, donors, and government bodies—are served with integrity and transparency.
The Governing Council is rooted in values such as honesty, dedication, selflessness, and ethical governance. In order to ensure efficiency at the grassroots level, the Council has also established Local Level Managing Committees (LLMCs), which are empowered to oversee daily project operations, supervise child care and protection activities, and engage actively with local communities.
The Governing Council holds 4 to 5 formal meetings each year to assess progress and guide ongoing efforts. One Annual General Body Meeting is conducted to evaluate the overall performance of the organization. Special or Extraordinary General Meetings are convened whenever urgent decisions or interventions are required.
In addition to providing strategic leadership, the Governing Council is also responsible for submitting all required statutory documents and compliance reports to authorities such as the Charity Commissioner and other government bodies. This ensures that SAMPARC operates in full legal and financial conformity with its commitments and obligations.
