Advocate Accounting has helped to make the financial part of our work within our organization so much easier for me and my team! In many instances, their ability to simplify the process for financially sound practices and policy has resulted in creating accounting systems that are ‘people friendly’ and have strengthened our overall agency structure.

I can’t say enough about the positive impact that Advocate Accounting has had on our organization. With c3 and c4 nonprofits and several political action committees (PACs), our financial and reporting needs are complex. Advocate Accounting has developed systems and processes to manage complicated financial activity between the entities, and helped to train our administrative and bookkeeping staff to maintain the day-to-day financial operations of the organization. Advocate Accounting has also been critical for our PAC compliance. From building systems that help ensure accurate reporting to training our staff on key public disclosure rules and their applications in our work, they’ve helped us stay on top of our reporting requirements in a fast-paced, campaign-style work environment.”
