ACCOUNTING

Empowering Nonprofits Through Transparent and Compliant Accounting

Specialized Accounting for Charities, NGOs, and Not-for-Profit Organizations

Running a nonprofit requires more than passion — it demands clear financial accountability, reliable systems, and full regulatory compliance. For charities and not-for-profit organizations, financial management isn’t just about keeping records; it’s about earning trust, demonstrating transparency, and ensuring every donation is used effectively.

At Elberra Consulting, we specialize in charity and nonprofit accounting services that align financial performance with mission impact. Our team understands the complexities of charity accounting standards, donor reporting, and regulatory obligations — helping your organization meet both compliance and community expectations.

Whether you’re a small community group or a global NGO, we design financial systems that ensure visibility, accuracy, and confidence in every report.

What We Do

We provide end-to-end accounting and advisory solutions built specifically for the nonprofit sector. Our consultants work closely with trustees, finance officers, and leadership teams to simplify reporting, automate processes, and maintain control over donor funds.

Solutions We Provide

Our goal is to help nonprofits achieve financial clarity, compliance, and credibility. We combine deep accounting knowledge with practical system design, enabling your team to focus on your mission — not manual spreadsheets or outdated reporting tools.

Charity bookkeeping & fund accounting

We help charities maintain precise fund accounting systems that separate and track donations, grants, and project-based expenses. Using cloud-based tools like QuickBooks and Xero, we automate daily bookkeeping and design fund-tracking frameworks that ensure every naira or dollar is used exactly as intended. This not only simplifies reporting but also builds donor trust, minimizes audit issues, and provides leadership with real-time visibility into financial performance.

Managing payroll for nonprofits often involves juggling volunteers, part-time staff, and project-based employees. We set up payroll systems that align seamlessly with your funding cycles and compliance requirements, ensuring salaries, stipends, and benefits are processed accurately and on time. Our approach reduces administrative burden, prevents regulatory breaches, and fosters a culture of transparency and reliability across your organization.

Transparency drives donor confidence, and our grant and donor reporting systems are built with that in mind. We design automated reporting workflows that capture how funds are allocated and utilized, translating complex data into clear, visual summaries that donors and regulators can easily understand. This clarity not only enhances accountability but also improves the likelihood of repeat funding and long-term partnerships.

A strong internal control framework is vital for safeguarding funds and maintaining organizational credibility. We assess your current systems, identify gaps, and develop customized financial policies that define how money flows, who approves it, and how records are maintained. Through these controls, we help you reduce fraud risks, maintain compliance with donor and legal standards, and ensure consistent financial discipline across your operations.

We help not-for-profit organizations move from short-term survival to long-term sustainability. By developing multi-year budgets, forecasting revenue streams, and implementing performance tracking systems, we empower your leadership team to plan confidently for the future. Our strategic approach improves budgeting accuracy, supports better decision-making, and ensures your organization remains financially healthy and mission-focused for years to come.

Audits don’t have to be stressful. Our consultants help nonprofits stay audit-ready all year by organizing financial documentation, reconciling accounts, and performing internal checks to detect and correct errors early. This proactive approach not only simplifies the audit process but also strengthens the organization’s reputation for financial integrity and good governance in the eyes of funders and regulators.
