Accounting Systems Set Up

Project details

What we need
  • Setup of selected accounting software (e.g. Aplos, Araize)
  • Training and guidelines on how to manage system and generate basic reports
Additional details

Hi! We've always done our own accounting and would like to make sure we're doing it as well as possible, improving as we go along. We're looking for help from an experienced nonprofit accountant, that is skilled with complex problem solving. Thank you for considering helping us!

What we have in place
  • We currently have much of the right documentation, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a business manager, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $5,409 , allowing us to support impact.

Small organizations have so many pieces, and this is one which we're not experts in. Having expertise would allow us to make progress and focus on areas where we excel.
