You didn't start a nonprofit
to manage the back office.
The back office was never supposed to be your job. ICNU takes it off your plate so you can get back to the mission that drove you here in the first place.
Responsive. Relational. Reliable.
You started this organization to serve a mission, not to become its bookkeeper.
Somewhere between the program work and the board meetings, the financial operations started eating your calendar. Reconciliations. Payroll questions. Grant reporting deadlines. None of that was why you said yes to this role. That is where ICNU comes in.
- Walk into every board meeting with financials that tell the story, not a spreadsheet your board has to decode on their own
- Keep your records organized and current so that when a funder, auditor, or oversight body asks to see the books, you hand them a file instead of an apology
- Get hours back every week that currently disappear into financial fire drills and back-office catch-up work
- Know what your numbers mean for the mission before someone on your board asks you to explain it in a meeting
What it feels like
"When you reach out, you hear back. Not a ticket number. Not silence. A person who already knows your situation and has thought about your answer."
That is the only standard we operate by.
How It Works
Simple on purpose.
You are already managing enough. Getting started with ICNU should not add to the pile. Three steps and you are in motion.
Tell us where you are
A short intake form asks about your organization, your current setup, and the thing keeping you up at night. Five minutes. No commitment. It helps us come to the first conversation already thinking about your situation.
We confirm the fit
We review what you shared, talk through the right tier and pricing, and make sure both sides know exactly what to expect. If it is not a fit, we will tell you that too. No hard sell, no awkward follow-up sequence.
We get to work
Most clients are fully onboarded within two to three weeks. After that, the back office runs quietly in the background, the way it was always supposed to. You lead. We handle the rest.
Three Ways to Work Together
As close as you need us to be.
Some organizations need a knowledgeable voice on call. Others need a working partner in the weeds every week. All three tiers start with clean books and honest communication. Where they differ is how deep we go together.
Nearby
You're not flying blind.
From $500/mo
Your books reviewed monthly, a plain-English summary of what the numbers are saying, and a real person available when a question comes up. Not flying blind is worth more than it sounds when the alternative is guessing.

I know this world because I live in it.
I am the Executive Director of Qavah Ministries, a 501(c)(3) my wife Pam and I built from scratch. I remember filing the 1023 and the particular joy of opening the Determination Letter. I tried one accounting platform, learned its limits, and switched to another. I learned the hard way that Florida requires annual registration with the Department of Agriculture if you solicit donations from Florida residents.
You are talking to someone who has sat exactly where you are sitting.
Nonprofits are different from businesses. Your donors give because they believe in the mission, not because they receive a product or service in return. Your board members are often volunteers with deep commitment and limited availability. Your budget is almost always tighter than your vision. And the weight of stewarding other people's generosity faithfully is not something every back office consultant fully understands.
I do. I have spent thirty years in financial leadership across corporate and ministry settings. I have helped organizations get their records in order, navigate grant compliance, clean up books that were handed off in chaos, and build systems that survive staff turnover. I know what it costs to carry a mission. And I would be honored to help carry it with you.
