ORGANIZATIONAL RESOURCES
The next part of our ongoing look at  Financial Management for Non-Profit Organizations focuses on the Financial Audit.

An audit is a systematic and independent examination of a non-profit organization's books, accounts, documents and vouchers to determine whether an organization's financial statements represent a true and fair view of its financial position as a result of its operations.

Learn more about the process an auditor uses, what an Auditor's Report is, and tips on how to review that report in the Financial Audit section of SaskCulture's Organizational Resources .
