$1M in revenue. Programs that looked healthy. Numbers that told a different story.

A nonprofit with over $1M in annual revenue was running roughly $60K–$78K per month in program spend. On paper, memberships and grants felt like the engine. After a full program-level analysis, the picture flipped — the membership program was barely breaking even, while two smaller initiatives were carrying the operation.
We built the reporting, runway model, and policy framework that gave leadership the language to make decisions, defend their choices to the board, and shift resources toward what was actually working.
