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
Additional details

We are submitting our budget for a government grant and we need to make sure that our narrative reflects the budget accurately. We are hoping for someone who can take that extra step after the budget is finished, of reading the narrative to make sure that they are in sync.

What we have in place
  • We currently have an operating budget for FY19, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have our GM/bookeeper to provide you with additional financials, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $9,114 , allowing us to spend more money on programming, both talent and physical production.

Having a clearer budget that matches the narrative in our grants will aid us significantly in our fundraising
