Background of the Study
Donor funds are critical for the execution of development projects in local government areas, particularly in Jere LGA, which has received significant aid for infrastructure, healthcare, and educational projects. However, managing these funds efficiently requires transparency, accountability, and proper documentation, which can be challenging without an effective Accounting Information System (AIS). This study aims to assess how AIS can enhance the management and utilization of donor funds in Jere Local Government Area.

This study seeks to evaluate how the introduction and utilization of AIS can improve the management of donor funds, ensuring proper allocation, accountability, and impact.
