Accounting Services for Nonprofits

Financial clarity, built for impact—not shareholders.

From Compliance to Clarity—We Have You Covered

When your nonprofit organization grows, your financial needs evolve. Bookkeeping alone isn’t enough—you need someone who can see the big picture, catch errors before they snowball, and guide your financial strategy forward. That’s where our accounting services for nonprofits come in.

At The Charity CFO, we pair day-to-day support from Associate Accountants with the oversight of seasoned nonprofit accounting managers. Together, they ensure your books are audit-ready, your reports are accurate, and your organization is positioned for long-term stability. No more missed classifications, confusing reports, or late-night spreadsheet stress.

  • Balance Sheet Reconciliations

    We catch errors early by reconciling your bank and credit card accounts monthly—so your financial statements stay trustworthy and clean.

  • Statements of Financial Position

    We make sure your assets and liabilities match up. From grants receivable to accrued expenses, we approach your balance sheets with precision.

  • Accrual-Based Journal Entries

    With accrual-based accounting (not just cash-based), you see the full picture of your organization’s financial activity.

  • Invoice Classification and Vendor Oversight

    We review vendor invoices and supporting documents to ensure every expense lands in the right place—including those tied to grants.

  • Donor-Restricted Fund Tracking

    We track restrictions tied to donations and grants, so you never overspend (or underreport) on funds with a purpose.

  • Payroll Recording and Third-Party Reviews

    While we don’t process payroll, we record and reconcile your payroll transactions—and review reports from your payroll provider for accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Accounting Services

Yes. That’s part of what makes us different. Our entire team is focused solely on nonprofits, and every service we offer—from audit assistance to grant management—is designed with nonprofit compliance and reporting in mind.

Great question—our service actually includes both. Your associate handles your bookkeeping, and your CFO oversees and supports that work with a higher level of review and guidance.

Absolutely. An accountant and bookkeeper might have varying degrees of expertise; if you have an internal bookkeeper but need a more strategic partner for oversight, reconciliations, or accounting support, we’re happy to collaborate and fill the gaps.
