23 May | 9:30 am 12:30 pm

Budgeting for sustainability in small charities can be challenging. Our business models and the operating environment often makes this difficult. However, there are things we can do to help us build our financial sustainability.

We will look at:

Understand the benefits of budgeting
Know how to prepare a simple multi project organisational budget
Understand how budgeting can contribute to sustainability
Understand the limitations of full cost recovery and budgeting when building sustainability

Some slides and Q and A
A practical budget building workshop
