Running a successful not-for-profit organisation can be challenging, with the almost daily ‘firefighting’ that almost all non-profit organisations face distracting you from your main focus, your mission. Combined with juggling the need to attract sponsors, supporters and donations to provide the funding that sustains the activities supporting your mission, is the ever-increasing administration, compliance, transparency and accountability requirements to governments, such as the ATO, ACNC, stakeholders and donors.
Your organisation may also be struggling to attract and retain staff with the required financial skills or may have volunteers or staff who need to be available with hands on involvement to meet your not-for-profits core purpose, so don’t have the time or capacity to perform the accounting and bookkeeping tasks when they need to be done.
To keep on top of your obligations and meet reporting requirements, treating your not-for-profit like you are running a business is a must, with proper business processes providing sound financial management along with accurate and up-to-date data to inform decision makers and stakeholders, meaning you can achieve a greater impact, perform more effectively, meet your objectives, remain solvent and continue to support the community.
