Nonprofits have a fiduciary responsibility to ensure that financial resources are effectively used in support of the mission. Nonprofit Board and management are stewards of funds that donors have entrusted them to safeguard and manage. In addition, nonprofits must provide transparent and reliable financial reporting to their donors and other stakeholders. All of that responsibility can be daunting, especially for smaller organizations.
