Baker Tilly experts have extensive experience addressing and managing the financial needs of Canada’s diverse not‑for‑profit sector.

Knowing that a non‑profit organization’s members, donors and stakeholders deserve assurance regarding the integrity of financial information, we provide exceptional clarity in reporting and transparency in disclosure.
