Finance & Accounting

Manage fund accounting — tracking restricted vs. unrestricted funds, grant cost allocations, and functional expense classifications. Prepare the Form 990 (the non-profit's public financial disclosure). Manage the annual audit. Track cost-to-raise-a-dollar and program expense ratios that watchdog organizations publish. Balance mission impact against financial sustainability. Every restricted gift creates an accounting obligation that lasts years.

Manage restricted and unrestricted funds, prepare GAAP-compliant financial statements with nonprofit-specific disclosures, forecast cash flow against grant periods, and present financial reports to board finance committees. Navigate the overhead ratio scrutiny that penalizes administrative investment.
