Not-for-Profit Organizations

Advising Tax-Exempt Organizations and Leaders

Knowledgeable professionals can help not-for-profits balance the demands of their mission with practical financial and strategic considerations. The dedicated team at Lindquist, von Husen & Joyce has served that purpose ever since our formation over 90 years ago.

LvHJ’s core services include nonprofit financial statement audits, preparation of information returns andnonprofit accounting services  for organizations with one or multiple entities.

Clients may have California assets as well as affordable housing properties and affiliated nonprofit organizations in other states. We frequently provide guidance to not-for-profit executive and financial leaders through presentations and educational offerings throughout the year. Leaders know that our guidance on financial health is just a phone call away.

To help your organization operate efficiently and cost effectively, LvHJ is a longtime advocate for national affordable housing audit and accounting standards to reduce compliance complexity. Within the not-for-profit community and its guiding agencies, our team is highly referred and respected.
