Providing independent business systems advice to charities
The demands
placed on charities have spiralled in recent years with many organisations
finding themselves facing a combination of external factors including:
growing need
for greater financial transparency and accountability frequent
changes in government legislation increasingly
complex governance and taxation regimes difficulties
in finding and keeping good staff Donations from
the public are supposedly on the increase, however when you consider the
financial impact of the high costs associated with public appeals combined
with poorly performing investment portfolios it is clear to see why
charities are finding it increasingly difficult to improve efficiency and
accountability. IT
systems can assist charities to improve efficiency and accountability.
Typical integrated applications available to charities include:
CRM and
membership management fund
raising and donar management grant
administration financial
accounting and flexible reporting including Charity Commission
