Financial Management of NonProfits

Recently, our finance coordinator Philippe gave two webinars to members of the RQGE about financial management. Those trainings are now online! They cover questions like:

• Different roles in an organization in terms of financial management (staff, Board, bookkeeper, and auditor)
• Audited financial statements and other kinds of financial verification
• Difference between nonprofits and charities
• Reading financial statements

And lots more! You can find the webinars here (in French). We know finances can be pretty overwhelming for some us, and Philippe did a really good job of breaking those concepts down to very simple terms. Whether you are staff or Board, we hope it is helpful for you!
