About this event

Financial statements help you understand the work of a nonprofit; they paint a picture with numbers. They help you to learn where an organization may be struggling financially and to make informed decisions about how to allocate resources. This training will review (1) different ways to present financial information to communicate your story and (2) how to help stakeholders, including the board, management, and funders, understand the work and the financial picture of your organization. We will focus on internal reporting and utilizing financial statements, management reports, graphs, and narratives.

This session is geared to nonprofits that have dedicated finance staff and those responsible for presenting financial information to leadership teams, staff, and boards (e.g., fiscal managers, finance directors, CFOs, board treasurers). Anyone interested in understanding different methodologies for presenting financial information is welcome to join!

Learning Outcomes: 

• See concrete examples of different options for presenting financial information.
• Learn how customized presentations and communication methods benefit diverse stakeholders (management, board, funders, and donors).
• Identify how to determine what financial information is most useful for your organization. 

This webinar will be recorded and shared with all registrants.

Note: this training was previously offered on May 6, 2026, as an in-person workshop in Portland.
