Finance Committee Responsibilities - Larry Simkins

With Larry Simkins, we turn finance committee work into a clear story—how balance sheets, income statements, and cash flows reveal a nonprofit’s real life. We examine whether revenue is mission-true and durable, and how liquidity, reserves, and efficiency signal health. We stress transparent reporting and strategy-anchored budgets. Finally, we equip non-financial directors with practical questions to prevent surprises and confidently steward long-term impact.
