Operating Budget

Project details

What we need
  • A detailed Operating Budget covering at least one full fiscal year
  • Expert advice on how to reconcile actual expenses with budgeted expenses
Additional details

We are a new & growing nonprofit with need for guidance making an operating budget that works for us.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a chart of accounts and Xero accounting software, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a motivated team, commitment to budgeting well,, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $9,114 , allowing us to dedicate these resources toward the purchase of overdose prevention supplies like naloxone (the medicine that reverses an opioid overdose), fentanyl test strips, and other harm reduction tools!

We've been working full-stop on our advocacy and direct service work, and are looking to slow down and make an operating budget for the coming year with guidance from an expert. We're hoping this planning will help us build a strong foundation for future work and growth.

Our mission

We promote harm reduction by distributing naloxone, fentanyl test strips, and other harm reduction supplies through peer-led programs; advocating for syringe access expansion and equitable drug policy reform; and organizing to build power among people directly harmed by overdose and the War on Drugs.

We work in coalition (which we define as "coming together for combined action") to advance the safety and dignity of people who use drugs, and to make evidence-based harm reduction public health resources widely available in New Jersey.
