Operating Budget

Project details

What we need
  • A detailed Operating Budget covering at least one full fiscal year
  • Expert advice on how to reconcile actual expenses with budgeted expenses
What we have in place
  • We currently have a google sheets budget but I don't know if it's correct, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a draft fundraising plan and idea of what's needed moving, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $9,114 , allowing us to use resources for our training and provide more support to communities across the county.

We need this to operate effectively and make sure we are managing our finances effectively.
