About / GivingArc
GivingArc brings the accounting rigor used at large nonprofits — Big 4-grade audit standards, deep 501(c)(3) expertise — to the small and mid-sized organizations that need it most.
Large nonprofits get white-glove service from top-tier firms — audit-ready books, board reports, on-time 990s. Small and mid-sized nonprofits get something else: inconsistent bookkeeping, inflated fees, year-end scrambles, and firms that treat them as afterthoughts.
We built GivingArc to close that gap.
Same methodology. Same rigor. A fraction of the cost — because we pair experienced nonprofit CPAs with the right technology, and we serve nonprofits only.
Led by a CPA with 2 years of Big 4 audit experience and a career in nonprofit accounting — the foundation of our process.
Our lead CPA sets the methodology every bookkeeper and accountant on the team follows. Every client relationship is overseen by senior leadership. Every book is structured around one principle: clean enough for any auditor to walk into.
We keep the team small, the oversight hands-on, and the methodology consistent — because that's what top-tier firms do for large organizations. Small and mid-sized nonprofits deserve the same.
