“We appreciate the support we get from AFS. You are always so approachable and speak in “non accounting talk” that I can always understand! Always very patient with me getting things done – so appreciate the quick turnaround of reports. A board member at the last meeting commented how reassuring it is to have AFS – we have total confidence in the reports you provide.”

With your financial guidance, our school is experiencing a reality that we could only have dreamed of 12 months ago. This reality means that the kids at our school have a new library, a new classroom, a new teacher, and upgrades to numerous other building facilities. So I want to offer a sincere thank you to you and the AFS team.”

“I have four young girls of my own, and I’ve enjoyed a close affiliation with their school having been the Home and School Treasurer for four years. I’ve come to understand the trials, difficulties, and challenges that schools face, and the lack of funds they have to provide the resources they want for their students. That’s where we can really help – stretching that dollar a little bit further, so Kiwi kids can get the best education possible.”
– Ben Duflou - Director, Accounting For Schools
