Accounting Systems Review

Project details

What we need
  • Analysis of accounting needs and assessment of Organization’s current accounting practices
  • Recommendations for process improvements for enhanced reporting
  • Recommendations on appropriate bookkeeping system such as a spreadsheet or Quickbooks and related costs (if necessary)
  • Note: This does not include accounting systems set up or implementation
What we have in place
  • We currently have detailed profit/loss report, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have quickbooks online account to access reports, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $8,564 , allowing us to continue to provide free and low cost services to kids and adults with diverse abilities.

Having a strong accounting system I'm sure you know is key to a strong organization. As a nonprofit starting out 5 years ago, all systems were given minimal attention and money. Although I believe we have a good accounting system, I know we could use the help in tweaking some things.
