Financial Transparency for Catholic Schools
We conclude our series, Building a Transparent & Accountable Church, with a look at Catholic schools. Like dioceses and parishes, they face multiple challenges. They exist in a wide range of juridical constructs with varied funding. Many are subject to existing guidelines as non-profits/NGOs. This webinar will look at some of the main challenges and recommend principles for best practices.
