The research used a descriptive research design on a case study of Norwegian Refugee Council. Questionnaires were administered and the interviews were conducted with management personnel, secondary data was obtained from the internal records of the organization. The research findings indicated that budgets and budgetary control are time consuming and are presented as fixed. The findings also indicated that budgets and budgetary control also attracts more funding from donors as they increase donor transparency and accountability. The study recommends that the organization should establish a budget committee so that it facilitates all the budgeting processes in the organization for instance, setting up of budget manuals and budget periods.
