ACCOUNTING FOR A CHARITY FOUNDATION
For every organization, bookkeeping is a mandatory part of the work. But some organizations believe that in case of non-receipt of profit, it is not necessary to keep accounting records. But it’s not. Even charitable organizations must keep records and accounts. It is clear that when the main activity is helping others, then there is no time left for maintaining accounting records. Then you can use specialized companies that will help you correctly and accurately conduct the financial activities of the charitable foundation.
Features of accounting for a charitable foundation
- The funds received to the accounts of the charitable foundation are donations that must be used exclusively for their intended purpose.
- When registering a charitable foundation, there must be an application for its inclusion in a non-profit organization. This will allow such a charitable foundation not to pay income tax.
Ways to receive funds to the accounts of a charitable foundation
- Non-cash transfers of funds to the bank details of the BF
