Just one question this week and it’s massive! If we’re halfway through the fiscal year and we’re not going to come anywhere close to hitting our revenue targets, how should the board go about cutting expenses? Yikes! Stacey and Andy get to the bottom of it, but it took the whole episode. Happy New Year, thanks for listening and supporting us with your questions. We look forward to answering even more in 2026.

We asked Santa to send us questions to Questions@NonprofitEverything.com, so maybe you can help!?
