Pursuit's Take
Congress authorized the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) to receive $48 billion in funding for the 5-year period beginning October 1, 2008, to assist foreign countries in combating HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria. Congress authorized additional funds to be appropriated through 2018.
CDC awarded PEPFAR funds of $40.7 million for September 30, 2010, through March 31, 2016, to Mildmay Uganda (Mildmay). We reviewed 61 financial transactions totaling $4.3 million and found 2 unallowable transactions totaling $36,000.

Mildmay also used PEPFAR funds to pay for unallowable staff meals, wedding costs, gifts, and value-added tax to the Ugandan Government.
