Episode 35 Published 10 months ago
Description
In this episode of Money to Give, Rick Peck sits down with Dave Ashworth, CPA, founder of The Quantify Group, to explore a critical but often overlooked truth: your nonprofit’s financial systems directly impact your ability to raise money. While fundraising and accounting may seem like separate functions, Dave reveals how transparency, reporting, and financial clarity are actually foundational to building donor trust and long-term sustainability. From setting up the right systems to understanding what donors are really looking for, this conversation breaks down how strong financial practices can elevate your entire organization.

Dave shares practical insights on common financial mistakes nonprofits make like improper fund allocation, lack of budgeting, and over-reliance on a single revenue source and how to avoid them. He also explains how transparency goes beyond compliance and becomes a relationship-building tool that strengthens donor confidence. Whether you’re a nonprofit leader, fundraiser, or advisor, this episode will help you align your financial strategy with your mission, improve reporting clarity, and ultimately position your organization for greater impact and growth.
