So, your nonprofit is being audited - don't panic!

​Our squad at Blue Fox created this comprehensive checklist to help your team prepare for a smooth audit process. We encourage you think about the audit as a proactive management tool (not a huge thorn in your side).

The auditor’s findings will in fact provide actionable insights on how to improve your back office and financial management practices. Bonus: implement the advice on our checklist and become a better financial steward even before the audit starts. (Your donors will like the sound of that!)
here's the checklist (free download)

Do All Nonprofits Require An Audit? 

First, we must say that our team at Blue Fox is pro-audit for nonprofits.  We know that financial oversight helps develop sustainable and transparent financial management practices. Is an audit intimating? It can be. But your organization will come out stronger on the other side. We encourage you to heed the advice in our audit readiness checklist so you can be as prepared as possible for a smooth and successful audit. 

But, is it required? The answer is more complicated than yes or no. According to the Council of Nonprofits, there are "circumstances that may trigger the requirement for an independent audit." Click here for that full article. 

For further questions, feel free to contact our team of nonprofit financial gurus. We can help your organization get sorted year-round and in the event that your nonprofit is being audited. We cheerfully serve our clients with 
customized financial and back office services ranging from standard bookkeeping and accounting, payroll and tax, to coaching and consulting, to comprehensive virtual CFO services.
