The Cash Flow Solution: The Nonprofit Board Member's Guide to Financial Success

by Richard Linzer, Anna Linzer

Many nonprofits rely on conventional methods of making and managing money-from donations to cash reserves, endowments, and capital building campaigns-in hopes of securing financial stability for the future. Yet these acquired funds often remain tantalizingly out of reach for day-to-day operations; the balance sheet may look good, but the actual cash available is often surprisingly low.In order to achieve their missions, nonprofits need to fundamentally change the way they think about money. Richard and Anna Linzer introduce a groundbreaking approach to nonprofit financial management based on cash flow and the use of credit that gives nonprofits the money they need, when they need it while ensuring the long-term financial well-being of the organization. Their revolutionary and effective financial model is explained in clear and understandable terms for decision makers in both large and small nonprofit organizations.
