Listen "Navigating Financial Health – Illiquidity vs. Insolvency"
Episode Synopsis
Understanding financial concepts is critical for non-profit board members, and in this episode, we break down two essential yet often confused terms: illiquidity and insolvency.

Real-world examples of non-profits facing these issues
Strategies for boards to manage illiquidity and prevent insolvency
The importance of aligning operations with financial realities and building reserves
How to use financial metrics to anticipate and mitigate risks
