Financial Management, Cashflow Planning, and QuickBooks for Nonprofits
This week we have all of the good fiscal topics that nonprofit organizations need to know! I get a lot of questions about nonprofit financial management, cashflow planning, and fiscal software.
Some common questions are:
How do we plan out our nonprofit’s budget?
Who should review our finances?
Does our nonprofit need an audit?
Should our nonprofit use QuickBooks for our financial accounting?
In this week’s video and podcast, Ansley Fender goes into detail answering these questions and more!
She discusses the basics of how your nonprofit organization can eliminate red flags with simple financial strategies. For example, she recommends having an internal eye, treasurer, and auditor review your nonprofit’s fiscal books. She also touches on the intersection of a nonprofit’s administrative, programmatic, operations, and fundraising strategies.
What Ansley and I Discuss:
- If your nonprofit should use QuickBooks
- The 3 roles of auditing your financial books
- How to handle grant writing management for your financial reports
- Cashflow planning
- The role of a CPA
- How to set up your financial books
- The importance of 990s
- And more…
