Voluntary Treasurers' Handbook

A resource from the Institute of Chartered Accountants Australia to help small organisations who rely largely on volunteers.

This publication is intended to help small non-profit organisations.

While the financial resources and skills of personnel will vary enormously, some principles are fundamental to all. Many small organisations have few, if any, paid staff and rely on the work of volunteers.

This handbook has been written to help small organisations and particularly the person carrying the financial responsibility. It attempts to cover, in broad terms, matters that honorary treasurers need to know about in order to keep their organisations on an even financial keel and out of trouble.
