Canadian Charity & Not-for-Profit Accounting
Accounting for Canadian charities and not-for-profits
CPA-led support from someone who has served as a Canadian not-for-profit treasurer: fixed-fee bookkeeping, board-ready monthly reporting, and GST/HST PSB rebates.
Why GoodLedger
We've sat in the treasurer's chair and understand the reporting questions Canadian charity boards and executive directors ask every month.
Most outsourced bookkeeping is designed for ordinary small businesses. GoodLedger is built for restricted funds, CRA charity filings, PSB rebates, and board packages that show what money is actually available to spend.
What We Do
Services built around the unique needs for not-for-profit
Charity & NPO Bookkeeping
Cloud-based monthly bookkeeping for registered charities and not-for-profits, with fund accounting, donation reconciliation, and CRA-ready records — done by a CPA-led team.
See what's included →Board-Ready Monthly Reporting
Every month we deliver the report your board actually needs: fund balances, budget-vs-actual by program, restricted fund movement, cash runway, and a written treasurer's narrative.
See what's included →T3010 & CRA Charity Compliance
We prepare and file your T3010 every year, keep your books in T3010-ready shape year-round, and stand between you and the CRA charities directorate when questions come.
See what's included →GST/HST and the PSB Rebate
Most Canadian charities under-claim the GST/HST Public Service Bodies' rebate for years. We get it filed correctly going forward and backfile what you've missed.
