Extend Your Effectiveness

What can a proactive CPA and consulting firm do to support the mission of your nonprofit organization? Much more than you might think.

Since our firm’s inception, MFA has been working with nonprofit organizations to identify practical opportunities for growth. Our solid comprehension of the nonprofit sector allows us to offer a full complement of services delivered by a team of highly qualified professionals. Partnering with MFA gives you access to financial insights and deep industry knowledge that can help your organization develop in ways that will better support your mission. As your organization grows, so will its reach, opening new doors for the communities and constituents you serve.

Save Time and Stay Focused on Your Mission

Many nonprofit organizations, especially smaller or newer entities, are used to operating with limited resources. IRS filings, compliance and risk management are more likely to be “hats” worn by a single person than separate functions handled by a team. Working with MFA allows you to spend less time coming to terms with changing audit and tax compliance matters and more time working on mission-critical goals. To ensure we work together in the most efficient and effective manner, we place seasoned, team members on your project from the very beginning. Whether your organization is seeking assistance in the preparation of federal, state or local filings, reinstatement as a tax-exempt entity, a plan for the prevention of fraud or an audit of its employee benefits plan, MFA’s financial professionals can draw from their extensive experience in the nonprofit sector to ensure your objectives are met on a timetable that works for you.

Gain Valuable Business Insight

We believe we bring true value to the table as we take the time to explain the operating implications behind various filing options, the fundamental reasoning behind financial best practices and the rationality behind recommendations for reducing the risk of tax exposure. Each engagement is staffed by team members with the correct level of expertise for the task at hand, and every question you raise is elevated immediately to the individual who can answer it. You will quickly find that we are interested in going far beyond the exercise at hand; we strive to help you make real progress toward your operational goals.
