Non-Profit Financial Accountability

Why Transparency Builds Donor and Board Confidence

The Importance of Financial Accountability in Achieving Your Mission

One of the most common roadblocks to achieving your nonprofit mission is a lack of financial accountability. Essential to successful nonprofit financial accountability is ensuring your board members are financially literate and have a sound understanding of financial practices and that your overall financial management system includes policies and procedures that support transparent reporting to your stakeholders.

Creating a Financial Control System

Ultimately, the goal of a financial management system is to implement sufficient financial policies that ensure financial reporting is accurate and reliable, and that the assets of the organization are safeguarded. By creating a strategic accounting system and implementing sufficient control policies, your organization will be on its way to achieving strong financial accountability.
