    Hi Addison – seconding the QuickBooks Made Easy recommendation, that’s a solid starting point. On the chart-of-accounts/grant reporting side specifically, that’s the piece we work on most with nonprofit clients (predawn accounting) – getting classes/projects structured properly so grant reports pull cleanly instead of fighting the system after the fact. Happy to jump on a call and take a look if useful.

    Also, if bequests or planned giving ever come up for your org down the line, we put together a short guide on the accounting side of that: https://predawnaccounting.com/nonprofit-accounting-for-bequests/
