Sustainability is a clear concern for funding sources today, and if you cannot document your organization’s sustainability, you are most likely losing out on funding.  AAFCPAs advises nonprofits to broaden the scope of their financial planning process to address the challenges of the current economic and funding landscape, and to ensure sustainability in the long-term. AAFCPAs will provide practical guidance and best practice recommendations so nonprofits may preserve their capacity to deliver on their missions in the event of unforeseen financial shortages.
