The findings on this study show that: often it's claimed that intergovernmental organizations are good at reaching the poor. This claim has been heralded by government practitioners. The local people who were consulted indicated that although there were significant benefits to the poor, yet such levels of benefits were varied from communities to communities. Their analysis was premised on the lacking of adequate productive assets such as access credit, land, education services, never the less the NUSAF presence and support to the communities was widely appreciated by the communities living in the Sub- County. From the findings it was interesting to the researcher to know that NUSAF has not managed to put up strong and logical mechanisms to bring to the targeted group information about its operations which remains a challenge to the project implementation. Given that the main source of income is from agricultural produce, and the land available to the communities is that small, it is necessary to consider high yielding high value crops for food and income.

Vital statistics has received considerably low priority in the policy agenda of sub-Saharan Africa, in general and Uganda in specific, despite the urgent need for reliable information to measure progress towards the Millennium Development Goals. Policy decisions and effective planning of resources entirely depend on reliable information; unfortunately this may be inadequate in most poor countries. This paper therefore asks; should we bother about counting the dead and what they have died from and do we need to know about those being born For any country to efficiently and effectively plan for the health of its population, it's fundamental that quality data on births, deaths and cause of death is collected, to provide guidance for policy and planning of limited health resources. Significant amounts of development aid have been invested in Uganda, to improve the health system and certainly the health status of the population, and the financers of these initiatives require accountability, both in terms of money spent and progress attained, but all these may not be possible, unless the country commits significant amount of resources to strengthen routine systems of data collection.
