Healthy Financial Practices

Encouraging healthy financial practices in the nonprofit community is an important part of our work. We offer a range of skill-building workshops and practical tools to strengthen your everyday effectiveness and build the foundation for a bright financial future.

Throughout the year, Nonprofits Assistance Fund offers financial management training workshops in the Twin Cities metro area, around the state of Minnesota, and in adjacent communities in North Dakota and Wisconsin. These practical and affordable workshops cover a wide range of topics and are designed by our staff specifically for the nonprofit community. Our trainers will walk you through the material in everyday English, using real world examples, to help you develop the necessary skills to manage your nonprofit’s finances.
