Nonprofit Budgeting

Thurday, January 15 | 12:00 - 1:30 p.m. 

Via Zoom

Register HERE.

Nonprofit leaders and staff know their vision and mission inside and out. But when it comes to budgeting, there are often many questions, from “Where do I begin?” to “How do I determine the numbers to use”? You aren’t alone! Join us as we discuss the budget process from start to finish, and what to do with the budget once it is complete.

This program will look at these questions, among others:

  • Why does my organization need a budget?
  • How do I start the budgeting process?
  • How do I determine the revenue and expense numbers?
  • Is it ok to have a deficit budget?
  • Our budget is complete – now what?
