The Necessity for Budgets in Nonprofit Organizations

"Many nonprofits need budgets to get money in the first place. But even if a funding source is willing to provide funds without a budget, a well-managed nonprofit will still prepare a detailed budget for spending the money."
Five Types of Nonprofit Organization Budgets

"The size and complexity of a nonprofit determine to what extent its organizationwide budget will resemble a pyramid, with each succeeding level representing a consolidation of several budgeting units, or cost centers."
Key Groups Having Input into a Nonprofit Organization's Budget

"Because creating a budget may touch on sensitive or confidential issues, individuals involved in the budgeting process need to know what is expected of them."
Creating the Overall Context for the Nonprofit Organization's Annual Budget

"Establishing guidelines, priorities, and goals are crucial and frequently overlooked budgeting steps in which the board, CEO, and CFO create the overall context for the coming year's budgeting process."
Income Implications on Nonprofit Organizations' Budgets

"Sources and types of income may affect a nonprofit's budgets and budgeting processes far more than they might a commercial organization."
Strategies to Set Nonprofit Organizations' Operating Budgets

"Nonprofits that clearly define their budget development strategies and communicate them to unit and program heads can build wide support for budget decisions and avoid time-consuming conflicts and adjustments in the future."
Presentation Steps for the Nonprofit Organization's Board

"Once draft budgets have been analyzed, modified, and balanced, and any necessary technical adjustments have been made, it is time to prepare an overall budget document."
The Nonprofit Organization?s Steps to Approve the Budget

"Obviously, the more thorough the board review is, the more time it requires."
