Nonprofit Overhead Analyzer

A lot of the nonprofits are not aware of the degree of their fiscal responsibility and potential areas of improvement. While UAC does substantial work in outreach, they would like to enable every nonprofit in the United States to be able to quickly self-analyze their expense rate. One benefit is that this will help make the initial conversation with UAC more substantial and productive.

Features
