Industry Insights

Committed to serving the
nonprofit community:

    • Civic and Social Organizations
    • Colleges and Universities
    • Educational Services
    • Grant Making and Giving Organizations
    • Health and Human Service Organizations
    • Membership and Trade Associations
    • Private Foundations
    • Social and Research Organizations

From nonprofit, educational, charitable, and social organizations to foundations and trade associations, nonprofit organizations represent a broad array of missions and activities. Operating in an environment that is far more challenging than ever, they also share important commonalities. The economic downturn has driven increased demand for services while revenues are under tremendous pressure. Regulatory complexity has increased, particularly for nonprofit organizations that receive federal funds, while the IRS and private watchdog groups invite more scrutiny.

BDO's Nonprofit & Education Practice understands these challenges. Working with your management and board members, we combine extensive experience serving nonprofit clients with industry leadership and insight to address the nuances of nonprofit financial and operational management.

We know that operating in a climate of change and complexity you look to your advisors for proactive guidance. Our professionals provide swift resolution of technical issues through partner-led client service teams and direct access to technical leaders. And, if your mission takes you beyond U.S. borders delivering services, medical supplies, equipment, human or financial capital, our global network in more than 100 countries stands ready to serve in Africa, South America, Eastern Europe or wherever in the world you operate.

BDO's Nonprofit & Education Practice is also pleased to share with you a series of on-demand webinars providing insights and vital information about regulation, reporting, fraud and accounting matters unique to the nonprofit community. For more information and to view the webinars visit our on-demand webinar library.

Internally, the Institute is our thought leadership center which assists client service teams around the country in developing innovative and practical tax, accounting and operational planning for our nonprofit clients. The Institute produces numerous publications, including a quarterly electronic newsletter, Nonprofit Standard, that focuses on the distinct needs of the nonprofit sector by addressing accounting, tax and operational issues such as executive compensation, Federal Form 990 issues and compliance with OMB Circulars. The Institute also sponsors educational seminars locally or via webcasts on issues such as fair value accounting, new Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Updates (ASU) implementation and compliance, tax planning, and a variety of management topics.
