    Hi Michael and Mark…I have been through this – twice! – and we followed the same retention periods that were in place when the organization was in operation, maxing out at 7 years. I was surprised by how often we did need to access records in the years following dissolution. In regards to storage, that was the hard part and we were able to rely on Board members to keep things (these were smaller organizations) but it may make sense to determine if there are funds available for a storage facility or, even better, (Mark!) get things digitized.

On October 8, 2025, Join Us for a National Town Hall on the Financial State of the Nonprofit Sector

Nonprofit GPS is a new, action-based community designed to help nonprofits navigate today’s disrupted revenue landscape. Built in consultation with organizations nationwide, it focuses on the real financial challenges nonprofits face — business model risks, capital management, budgeting, governance, and more. Together, we’ll share practical strategies and highlight bright spots of practice that strengthen missions, even in the most disruptive times.

At this event you will hear: an analysis of the current economic landscape for nonprofits and the implications for practice; what array of critical new resources will be offered by Nonprofit GPS over the next three months and beyond; and how to become involved as a practice leader in this community.

Join a space designed to foster support, inclusivity, and respect for every voice.
