Key Differences Between a Nonprofit’s Program vs. Administrative Budget [Video]

Key Differences Between a Nonprofit’s Program vs. Administrative Budget

Budgets can be unnerving for nonprofit organizations. Understanding what all goes into a budget can seem simple until you start adding:
✅ programs,
✅ operating expenses,
✅ indirect costs,
✅ in-kind
✅ donations, and
✅ income.

At this point, your nonprofit may want to consider hiring an accountant or having some training!

It’s a good thing that Damien Scott of My Summit CFO comes on the podcast show to give you specific nonprofit budget tips!
