Non-Profits

Our significant non-profit client base is much more to us than simply a list of clients; they are an extension of Smith & Howard’s interest in, and commitment to, our community. Our clients include associations, schools, foundations, service organizations, governmental agencies and more. We have a special — and specially trained — team that works with these unique clients on audits, tax compliance and advisory services. In addition, we participate in the BDO Seidman Institute for Non-Profit Excellence. This group was founded to provide innovative and practical business solutions to the non-profit community and to serve as a think-tank to non-profits around the country.

In today’s environment, non-profits are facing issues that include a call for greater transparency, heightened corporate governance and adherence to increasingly complex accounting standards. Though many of these issues were originally generated to oversee for-profit businesses, they have led to intensified scrutiny of non-profit organizations. Our clients can count on being kept up-to-date on these critical, evolving issues, while enjoying the benefits of a professional, timely and efficient audit and tax compliance process and advisory services that allow them to focus on achieving their mission.
