The Charlotte Buddhist Vihara & Meditation Center is in need of a Treasurer for our Board of Directors. If you have some basic accounting skills and wish to support your community's spiritual and mental health, please consider providing your services as our organization Treasurer.

This position is an official Board position and would require following Charlotte Buddhist Vihara Board Bylaws, and attending some (but not all) regular meetings (and/or may also be attended remotely).

We anticipate this position to require up to a few hours of regular work monthly. It also includes one annual project requiring a simple report generation and sending out donor contribution letters which is estimated to take up to 8 hours to complete.

Responsibilities can be performed largely at the individual's own time convenience, helping us to maintain timely accounting and financial information to our Board, community and supporters.

We're asking for a commitment of assistance for one year (through the 2020 fiscal year), with a good-faith promise to perform needed duties in a prompt manner.

• Some basic computer and spreadsheet skills, a basic level of data entry, checkbook management skills, and ability to use and file a simple tax form, as well as a willingness to respond to emails and perform duties in a timely manner.
• Some accounting skills would be a plus but are not required. A tablet or computer with a pre-loaded and pre-setup npo financial management software program can be provided for use for the duration of service.
• This individual would be helping us to create a monthly and annual financial report using a simple non-profit accounting program we already own/use (or perhaps another program of your preference), provide a monthly email status update, a brief synopsis of our financial status (according to info gleaned from the accounting program) for Board Meetings, depositing incoming donor checks to the bank, and updating/monitoring/reconciling the bank checking and savings account balances on a twice-monthly basis with the accounting program, prepare our annual financial tax filing, etc., but will not require legal or financial advising, and any associated costs can be covered by our organization's funds.
