Planning for Financial Sustainability

Cindy Bergvall, CPA Bee, Bergvall & Co./Catalyst Center for Nonprofit Management

The first step toward financial sustainability is an understanding of what your numbers are telling you.  Understanding financial statements, the annual budget and the organization’s 990 are just a few critical skills for both executives and board members to have as they plan for the future sustainability of the organization.  During this session we will look at a number of tools and indicators to assess your financial health.

June 5th 8:30-12:00

Successful Mergers and Collaborations

Nancy Burd, The Burd Group

Laura Solomon, Founder, Laura Solomon & Associates.

As more organizations face the challenges of our economy, sometimes the only prudent course of action is a collaboration or merger.  A well executed merger of two organizations with complementary missions, values, and constituencies can achieve economies, efficiencies and synergies that the organizations are unable to achieve alone.  During this session we will look at key elements of a successful collaboration or merger from both a planning and legal perspective.
