Even if you're not a numbers person, this overview will empower you to understand how to categorize expenses and to maintain proper records in case a future audit is required.. Prepare to tackle your bookkeeping responsibilities with newfound clarity as you leave with a toolkit of resources, including templates, worksheets, and valuable links. Don't miss this opportunity to strengthen your financial management skills and ensure your nonprofit's success.
