Financial management in community organisations

Financial management and preparing budgets for programmes, or for the whole organisation, tends to be a constant task for organisations which rely on grants and donations.  Scroll down for resources which can help.

We're planning to expand the Guide to include financial statements, spreadsheets and software. If you are interested in helping or know of useful resources, please Contact Us.

We are grateful to Lincoln University and Cora Bailey for permission to reproduce material on 'Budgeting in community organisations'.
