This is the fourth post in a series following Executive Director, Gretchen Benner's attendance of the York County Non-Profit Management Certificate Program - Rock Hill, SC. William Drinnon, CPA of Burkett, Burkett and Burkett shared valuable information in regards to Financial Management of a non-profit organization. An underlying theme was the strong need of accountability and transparency. Adding internal controls in order to ensure minimal error was emphasized, such as intentional staff double-checking figures. It was intriguing to learn how to possibly adapt to a small organization, such as Piedmont Music Therapy. PMT is committed to integrity & ethical values. Last month's workshop emphasized the need to increase conscience controls for minimal risk with the organization's financial stability which has been a huge gift with the volunteers serving on the Board of Directors who have professional work experiences in finance. Learning about the intricacies of Form 990 through the Internal Revenue Service was interesting, too. PMT looks forward to publishing its first Form 990 in a few weeks. This informational tool will be a great way to share the numbers of our organization. I am grateful for Mr. Drinnon's presentation and will continue to apply strategies learned!
