    I think separating direct programme costs from shared overhead is a good starting point. For online education, you could track platform development, educator support and research separately. A consistent method should make programme costs much easier to understand.

    Your board member is right about earning near zero, but moving operating cash without a policy is risky.
    The middle ground here is to move any cash above your immediate flow needs into a money market account that is still accessible. That is a safe first step.
    Then build a formal reserve policy. Define what is your working capital and what is your operating reserve. Document your current cycle of six months down to two to three months as your rationale. That turns a good idea into a sustainable, governed strategy.

    Anniee, the one thing I would add is to track everything with UTM parameters. It is the only way to know which platform is actually driving donations, not just likes. One has to be smart, not just social.

    The funding freezes and policy shifts are the biggest concerns. Unpredictable grants and revised contract terms are forcing organisations to operate in survival mode, making it hard to retain staff, plan ahead, or speak openly about their mission. It has become a daily fight for financial stability.
