Strengthening Non-Profits with Strategic Financial Solution

Providing tailored financial solutions designed to align with your unique needs and budget, ensuring long-term sustainability and impact.

Hello! I’m a finance consultant with over a decade of experience supporting international not-profits in building strong, clear, and compliant financial systems. My goal is to help mission-driven organisations focus on their impact while ensuring their finances are managed with transparency, efficiency, and sustainability.

With expertise in financial planning, grant management, and donor reporting, I specialise in helping NGOs strengthen their financial foundations, optimize resources, and remain compliant with donor regulations. I work in English, French, and Spanish, and I’ve had the privilege of working with teams and projects across diverse regions and sectors.

My Approach

I believe that financial clarity is key to helping NGOs achieve their mission. I bring both technical expertise and a practical approach to each project/programme, offering solutions that are tailored to your needs and ensuring that your financial operations support your goals.

Lisa Abwa

ACCA (Chartered Certified Accountant)

For more than a decade, I have worked at the crossroads of purpose, people, and numbers, helping organisations bring clarity and confidence to how they manage resources and deliver change.

With a background in Geography and Environmental Sciences, and as a fully qualified ACCA accountant, I bring both an analytical and systemic understanding of how financial structures underpin impact. My approach combines technical precision with a deep curiosity for how people and places shape outcomes ensuring that finance becomes not just a back-office function, but a driver of integrity, collaboration, and growth.

Having lived and worked across different cultures and languages, I’ve learned that communication in every sense, is at the heart of effective financial leadership. Being fluent in English and French, and proficient in Spanish, I’m passionate about building understanding and trust across teams, partners, and contexts.

Over the years, I’ve guided global teams through the complexities of donor management, compliance, and strategy, always with the aim of empowering others. I’ve seen how transparent systems, thoughtful mentoring, and shared accountability can transform the way an organisation works.
