Budgeting & Writing an Acquittal for Non Profits

A budget for a grant application to undertake a project is a plan of how money will be used to achieve the projects goals. An acquittal is the report to the funder of how the funds were used and an account of what happened, and the impact the project had in the community.

Being able to do both well is a fundamental part of the granting process. This session will provide community groups with the confidence to be able to understand the basics of budgeting for grants and what is required when reporting back to funders. It will provide guidance for the acquittal process and how to build the organisations reputation through providing a great acquittal.

Topics include:

» Budgeting for funded projects

» Understanding what makes a good budget process

» Appreciating the numbers we know and those we guess

» Checking the reporting expectations of the funder

» Going above and beyond to deliver a great acquittal
