NonProfits And NGOs
The Non Profit Organizations (NPOs) and Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) have their own unique struggles. You have to watch every penny going out and coming in very carefully and the monitoring process is critical.
You must keep your staff and volunteers busy and happy, all the while keeping the money flowing into the organization. You keep records for the benefit of your donors and track hours and program results. As a nonprofit or NGO, when it comes to spending money you are in the spotlight and must account for how you are spending money as well as how you manage the retention of your documents for the auditors.
