Nonprofit Bookkeeping & Accounting For Dummies
I have enjoyed thumbing thru this very informative and valuable book, `Nonprofit Bookkeeping & Accounting for Dummies.’ The author, Ms. Farris, makes it easy to read and follow, unlike other `boring’ bookkeeping and accounting books that I have in my extensive collection of business related books.
As a Project Director, business coach and consultant for a non-profit organization, I have the opportunity to work with entrepreneurs. I make it a point to introduce this book to all of my clients who are starting or have an existing non-profit organization. In my opinion, every non-profit organization should own a copy of this book as a quick desktop reference guide!
Thumbs up to Ms. Farris for a great resource!

Sharon has done a exceptional writing of this book. As someone who has served on a few Non-Profit Boards, this book has the ability to clearly give directions on how to do the numbers within a Non-profit. I’ve ask the Non-Profits that I’m associated with to make it a must read for all of staff and Board Of Directors.
