Admin Bandit is software designed specifically for volunteer treasurers, particularly in the not for profit sectors. Along with the software, Admin Bandit offers support through the many articles posted to the blog.
If you are new to the role of volunteer treasurer or even just learning how to be a member of a committee of management, there is a lot of really useful content available for you. There is a very useful series of posts beginning with "Now that I am the Treasurer, what do I do?" These will help you get settled into the role.
Some of the most important information you need before you begin is how to read and understand the financial reports for your organisation. Starting at the beginning, the post entitled "What is a Financial Report?" explains what it is, why it is important and what the report includes.
If you find that the books are a mess and you need help to
get them sorted out, read the post on how to fix community organisation accounts.
Finance reports are not just a series of figures. They are accompanied by a written report
which explains what the figures are actually telling the committee. If you are not sure how to read one, let
alone prepare the report, you will find out more at "The Written Finance Report".
Keep reading the blog and you will learn about the role of the committee of management, where the Finance Subcommittee fits in and how the policies and procedures of your community organisation affect your role.
Admin Bandit is there to support you with information as
well as systems so that you can comfortably handle your role as Volunteer
Treasurer.
