Understanding Finances: A Guide to Investing Money for Community Organisations
A not-for-profit organisation's social mission makes it all the more important to squeeze every ounce of value out of every dollar raised. You need to make sure any spare cash is put to work as hard as possible in a way most likely to maximise the funds they have.
This Guide aims to help you understand when and how your organisation might consider pursuing investments and what your options might be - what the different types of investments are, what risks are involved in each, and how you can use your newfound knowledge to increase your not-for-profit's funds.
