Not For Profit

Blackfish Accounting™ recognizes that today's changing not-for-profit rules and regulations force non-profits to adhere to a higher standard of financial reporting than many private corporations. Increasingly, Executive Directors and Board Members must report on the source of funds, as well as how exactly it is used. In addition, some not-for-profit organizations are required to conduct an annual financial audit to promote donor confidence and submit these reports to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) thus placing additional demands on an already over-burdened staff and board.

Blackfish Accounting™ eases the stress of managing multiple funding streams, tracking program budgets, and estimating costs by setting up financial and bookkeeping systems that simplify not-for-profit monitoring and reporting. The Blackfish team provides insight into developing or revising financial policy and procedures that respond to the increasing demands of funding agencies and the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). Several of Blackfish's Certified Management Accountants (CMA's) are qualified to conduct annual not-for-profit audits and provide this service, as well as, other accounting and management consulting supports to a variety of not-for-profit clients.

Blackfish partners, as active volunteer board members, recognize the realities non-profits face and apply their financial management to help Executive Directors and Boards navigate the every-changing funding and financial management requirements.

Blackfish Accounting™ understands that personal service helps clients succeed. As such Blackfish has implemented the Blackfish Accounting™ Advantage service policies that ensure each clients’ unique needs are met.
