Non-Profit Organizations: Accounting, Strategic Planning and Management
Hi Welcome to ValuationPodcast.com - A podcast and video series about all things related to business and valuation. My name is Melissa Gragg, and I own a valuation company in St. Louis Missouri.
I have the privilege of discussing Non-Profit Organizations: Accounting, Strategic Planning and Management today with Tosha Anderson, a CPA and non profit accounting expert in St. Louis, Missouri.
Welcome Tosha!!
So you started your accounting firm – The Charity CFO – in order to focus on accounting services for non profit organizations. Let’s start with explaining some simple concepts for our listeners.
What is a nonprofit organization? Is it the same as a nonprofit foundation or association?
Are nonprofits only focused on fundraising? What do you see as the biggest concern in the nonprofit sector?
What are some important differences in the accounting for nonprofit organizations as opposed to a for profit business?
How do you provide accounting services to nonprofit organizations, which may not have enough money to hire an accounting firm?
Do you get involved in the strategic planning for nonprofit organizations or work with management to advance their leadership skills?
What is one of your best accounting tips or advice for someone who wants to start a nonprofit organization?
Can you tell us more about your path to becoming an accountant and focusing on non-profit organizations?
