When the end of your audit is in sight, the last thing you want to do is answer follow-up questions from HUD about the numbers you submitted. However, these questions are usually easy to answer and will help avoid strongly worded letters and hefty fines.
Not-For-Profit Auditors
Timely,
Friendly
Non-Profit Auditors
We’re here to serve those who serve others.
Not-for-profit organizations are values-minded and mission-focused, and when it comes to serving them well, so are we. They should have clear and accurate financial statements that are delivered timely, while the data is still relevant, without extra costs.
Our Services
No two non-profits are alike. That’s why it takes a comprehensive, relational approach to successfully audit a not-for-profit organization. Our team builds relationships with our not-for-profit clients that make the audit process smoother and faster every year. Here’s what you can expect from a Lemler Group audit:
- Guidance on changes to not-for-profit compliance measures
- Personal attention to your areas of concern
- General consulting on financial reporting best practices
- Communication and presentation to board of directors
Your mission is your top priority, which means your auditor should strive to make the process as painless as possible so you can get back to what matters most: your mission of serving others.
Timely Service
Financial statements are a critical tool for your organization’s strategy. That’s why we make sure you get them on time, every year.
Easy Contact
No more paying for conversations about your audit. We keep in touch with our clients all year long, free of charge.
Few Interruptions
Tired of playing host to auditors for weeks on end? We can work remotely or in-house, whichever you prefer.
“Lemler Group makes it easy and pleasant to accomplish something that most people dread.”

Non-Profit Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between an audit, review, and compilation?
In short, the amount of assurance we provide that your financial statements are accurate. An audit is the highest level of assurance we can provide, whereas a compilation is focused on the presentation rather than the content. Not all organizations need a full audit to accomplish their goals, though many require it to be performed.
What changed with the new not-for-profit reporting standards?
Starting for fiscal year 2018, your financial statements will look different than in prior years. Net asset classifications have changed, new notes have been added, and expense reporting has new requirements. You can read all about these not-for-profit reporting changes on our blog.
When would I need a Yellow Book or A-133 audit?
Yellow Book standards (Government Audit Standards), in addition to an A-133 (now Uniform Guidance) Single Audit section, are required for not-for-profit audits that receive more than $750,000 in governmental funds. When necessary, we can perform all of these services for not-for-profit organizations.
