Accounting for Nonprofits

The term “nonprofit” sometimes gets confused with “we don’t make money.” This couldn’t be further from the truth. After all, you have a very important mission. The only way you can help more people in your community, positively impact society, and change the world is by adding to your organization’s bottom line.

Through 50 plus years of working with our mission-driven clients, we have developed expertise in the business issues you face. Our knowledgeable partners and staff will design approaches that deliver bottom-line results. Yes, even with your Form 990. We recognize the value this public document can provide in telling your story, as it often serves as the first point of contact for donors. Clients have actually received new major gifts because of the thoroughness and attention to detail displayed in the 990 we prepared for them.

Think of us as your biggest fans. We’re passionate about the work you are doing for our communities and we want to be a part of it by serving YOU.

We regularly advise our nonprofit clients on issues relating to:

• Agreed-upon procedures
• Audits, reviews, and compilations of financial statements
• Budgeting, forecasting, and projections to assist with long-term strategic goals
• Business accounting services such as bookkeeping, account reconciliations, on-site controllership services, and financial statement preparation
• Employee Benefit Plan Audits
• Fraud awareness and prevention
• Internal control reviews
• Mergers and acquisitions
• Single audits (also known as Subpart F audits under the Uniform Guidance)
• Tax planning and preparation of federal and state tax returns, including Form 990, 990-EZ, 990-T, and 990-PF

Nonprofit groups we have served include:
