Since 1973, AAFCPAs has helped nonprofits thrive by navigating complex regulations and compliance, funding, and grant requirements.
Empowering Mission-Driven Organizations
Skillful financial management is essential to any viable organization. The financial reporting needs of nonprofits is proving to be increasingly complicated due to diversity among program offerings, highly-regulated funding sources, and in some cases, multiple real estate holdings.
AAFCPAs has been critical to the success of numerous sophisticated nonprofit organizations since our founding in 1973. We fully understand the unique culture and nuances of mission-driven organizations, including the complexities of funding sources, grant requirements, and regulations that apply to nonprofit entities. Our depth of industry expertise coupled with our extensive exposure to the best practices in the sector makes us uniquely qualified to advise you on running a highly efficient and effective organization.
We provide audit, tax, accounting, and advisory solutions to diverse community, national, and international nonprofit clients.
Assurance & Compliance
AAFCPAs provides nonprofit audit, tax, and advisory solutions to exempt organizations with complex governance structures, regulatory requirements, and stakeholder reporting needs. Our nonprofit assurance services include financial statement audits and Uniform Guidance / Single Audits designed to strengthen financial transparency, support effective governance, meet compliance obligations, and satisfy board and funder reporting requirements.
AAFCPAs has served nonprofit organizations for more than 50 years. In addition to experienced nonprofit CPAs and tax professionals, our broader team includes consulting CFOs, nonprofit tax attorneys, automation architects, IT security professionals, and systems engineers who provide valuable operational, technology, compliance, and strategic insight beyond the audit itself. Clients rely on us for expertise in Forms 990, UBIT, multistate compliance, and other complex tax-exempt organization matters, supported by responsive service, clear communication, and practical guidance that helps organizations navigate complexity with confidence.

Governance, Operations & Transformation
Nonprofit organizations lean on AAFCPAs at moments that matter most—during growth, leadership transitions, funding or regulatory pressure, system change, or when boards and management need clearer direction. Our nonprofit consulting solutions are designed to help leaders navigate complexity with confidence by translating financial, operational, regulatory, and governance challenges into practical and defensible decisions. Drawing on advanced sector knowledge and real‑world experience, we work with executive teams and boards to strengthen operations, manage risk, modernize systems, and plan for sustainable change in ways that align with mission, culture, and accountability expectations.
What sets AAFCPAs apart is context and execution. Our consultants understand how nonprofits actually operate because our work is often informed by long‑standing audit, tax, and advisory relationships across the sector. We don’t offer theoretical frameworks but, instead, assess what’s working, clarify tradeoffs, and help implement solutions that stand up to board scrutiny, funder expectations, and public accountability. Whether improving processes, guiding system selection and implementation, enhancing governance effectiveness, or supporting strategic planning, we help nonprofit leaders make informed decisions, steward resources responsibly, and move forward with clarity and purpose.
