I've maintained the books for 501(3)c nonprofit organizations for 30 years and have 46 years of for-profit business experience. For sixteen of those 30 years, I was the organization's treasurer, which entailed defining the accounting procedures and then executing them, including deposits, bill payments, bank reconciliations, financial statements, and tax returns. For the other 14 years, I was the Executive Director and maintained the books, performing the same functions. Though a nonprofit, our revenues came from customer contracts and event management rather than donations. In previous years, I worked for 30 years in IT positions, from developer to CIO. My initial job out of college was writing an accounting system for a retailer from scratch, Now retired from full-time work, I earned my QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor certification and am available to help you with your books.Event ManagementRetailNonprofitQuickBooks OnlineBookkeeping - $25 hourly
