The Digital Transformation of Nonprofit Accounting

Jim Norton, CPA | Accounting Technology Senior Manager

Nonprofit leaders have always faced a unique set of challenges: how to do the most with less, how to serve constituents, and how to comply with an ever growing, ever changing, endless array of varied reporting requirements. Digital transformation is upon us, and with it comes even greater need for the nonprofit leader to understand and make critical decisions with data in as close to real-time as possible. Join GRF for this lively discussion on the digital transformation of nonprofit accounting, along with demonstration of technology to help your organization excel in the digital age. For a primer on digital transformation and accounting, read 2021 Will Accelerate Accounting’s Digital Transformation.

We will discuss:

  • How the role of finance and operations has evolved with digital transformation
  • How to enhance transparency with faster, more accurate audit preparation, real-time reporting, and dashboards
  • Different strategies for measuring and analyzing key metrics in nonprofit organizations
  • Approaches to automate grant reporting, fund accounting, budgeting, and other critical functions
  • Why the accounting landscape for nonprofits drives the need for accelerated digital transformation

Join us to learn how the right financial management tools can help you capitalize on digital transformation and take your nonprofit’s ability to tell your story through financials to new heights. Bring your questions! We’ll reserve time for Q&A.
