Finance work for community-benefit and public-strategy nonprofits.
Community-benefit and public-strategy nonprofits run grant-heavy portfolios, government contracts, and program coalitions. At the Institute for Public Strategies, our team handled day-to-day accounting and audit preparation during a critical period, in CEO Brenda Simmons's words.

Why community and public-strategy nonprofits bring us in.
Federal and state grants, government contracts, and program-coalition accounting all land inside the same monthly close. When the portfolio grows, compliance calendars become full-time work. That is the seat we fill.
The services community nonprofits reach for.
