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 currently have an operating budget, but would like assistance in contingency planning (as grants do or do not come in), how to best plan and manage restricted vs. unrestricted grants, as well as reconciling our actuals each quarter.

What we have in place
  • We currently have an operating budget, three scenarios for budgets for 2021, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have Q2 financial statements, net asset roll forward,, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $9,114 , allowing us to allocate resources to our programming.

We are at a moment where we'd like to bring on additional staff, but feel like we need a better grasp on our budget, and funding scenarios in order to so in a smart way.
