    (Uganda Christian University, 2026-04-01) Esther Gabriella Kirabo
    This study sought to investigate the role of budgeting in the achievement of financial goals in an organization. This research used Transcultural Psychosocial Organization (TPO) Uganda as the case study. This research was motivated by the financial challenges being experienced by non governmental organizations (NGOs) in Uganda. These challenges are donor dependency, stringent rules and regulations, and demands for accountability and transparency. This research used a case study design involving quantitative and qualitative aspects. The researcher used structured questionnaires to sample 52 respondents from management staff, finance officers, and departmental coordinators. This research also used secondary sources of data from financial and audit reports. The researcher used descriptive statistics to analyze the collected data. The results of this research showed that TPO Uganda uses structured budgeting approaches in budget preparation and budgetary control. This research also showed that budgeting and financial goal attainment have a positive relationship. This is because budgeting improves the efficiency of resources, reduces costs, and enhances financial accountability and sustainability. This research concludes that budgeting is an important financial management technique for NGOs.
