Nonprofit Startup Essentials:

Building a Strong Financial and Operational Foundation

Description:

Starting a nonprofit is exciting… until the spreadsheets, policies, and legal jargon hit.
This course helps you skip the overwhelm and build the kind of financial and operational systems that actually work—without the corporate nonsense.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Create a budget that supports your mission and keeps you out of panic mode

  • Set up a functional chart of accounts (yes, it matters more than you think)

  • Build simple systems that scale with you, not stress you out

  • Understand what matters to funders, board members, and auditors—without needing a CPA

  • Avoid the back-end disasters that trip up even the most passionate founders

Whether you're in planning mode or already in the weeds, this course will help you build a foundation you can trust—so you can focus on impact, not chaos.
