Values
Relationships : Strong relationships are vital to the success of the important work we are all doing. We practice effective and honest communication with our partners.
Integrity: We approach our work with integrity, transparency, and expertise to gain the confidence of our clients needed for a lasting partnership.
Passion: Passion for the tremendous impact our clients have in our community is what brings us joy and fulfillment. We get excited about numbers.
Authenticity: We show up to our work, our team, and clients in a genuine manner to foster meaningful connections. We are honored to walk beside our clients, tackling challenges and celebrating successes together.
Storytelling: Understanding our client’s mission, values, vision, and strategic direction is vital to our work to effectively tell the financial story. The financial story outlines how valuable resources are deployed to have the most mission impact.
We understand that a nonprofit’s bottom line goes much deeper than dollars and cents. Our partners are here to make a positive impact on their communities and world, while doing work they love to do.
We started Studio501 to bring that spirit of joy and optimism to nonprofit accounting, a passion that’s guided us for over two decades.
We believe a strong financial relationship is a valuable asset. Working alongside our nonprofit partners, we see their mission through their eyes and make their challenges our own. Building on their ambitions, we guide them to do more with the resources they have, remove financial roadblocks and uncertainty, and keep getting better at what they do.
A nonprofit’s financial story can powerfully connect with stakeholders across the community, from board members to investors to allies. When our clients tell it well, they’re more successful — better able to address the critical issues of our times and create a more vibrant, welcoming and equitable world.
