New Course for Board Members Provides Road Map to Reviewing Financial Statements
Course offered for board members of local nonprofit organizations
Macon County – A new training course will equip board members of local nonprofit organizations with the skills and confidence needed for reviewing their organization’s financial statements.
“Take the Fear Out of Financial Statements,” a three-session series on financial oversight, is offered by The Community Foundation of Macon County (CFMC) .
- July 19, July 22, & July 27 at 6-8:00 PM
Participants are asked to attend all three sessions: 6-8:00 p.m. All sessions will be held at the first floor conference room at 101 South Main Street, Decatur, IL. The $30 enrollment fee also includes materials and light refreshments.
“One of the most complex aspects of serving on a nonprofit board can be reviewing the organization’s financial reports,” says Natalie Beck, CFMC president. “Through this course, the instructor breaks down the financial information contained in board packets – while also making the course interesting and interactive. It’s not an exaggeration to say she takes out the fear and puts the fun into fiduciary duties.”
