Keep Cincinnati Beautiful has as its primary 2020 strategy reaching out to the corporate community for investment in our various programs through corporate social responsibility.  We have done some due diligence around targeting companies that meet our needs (locally owned, commitment to sustainability, 300-800 employees).   We are seeking sponsorships for Great American Clean-Up, Environmental Education, and other initiatives.  We need to be able to communicate value to these corporations in terms of return on investment,

Keep Cincinnati Beautiful has programming in Environmental Education, Environmentally Based Arts, Great American Clean Up, Graffiti and Illegal Dumping Abatement, and Greenspace management.  We are also launching a new program called Vacant Lots Occupied, which reclaims vacant spaces for neighborhood use.  We are working through  some strategies and have come to the section on "codifying our secret sauce".  We would love some consulting on thinking about our core critical processes,

Keep Cincinnati Beautiful does not have a Finance Department.  We have a Bookkeeper who is one day a week and we use QuickBooks.  We have a contract Accountant who does monthly close, and our statements are audited by an independent CPA firm annually.  This works fairly well, and we have a decent understanding of our financial condition from month to month.
