Bradley M. Kuhn 1327b684d6 Use supporter-page.js & its formatting conventions 
The npoacct campaign was launched before the Supporter program, and
parts of its functionality were incorporated into supporter-page.js
ultimately.  This commit hopefully now backports that functionality to
npoacct campaign.

<h2>Fundraising Campaign: Non-Profit Accounting Software</h2>
<img src="/img/conservancy-accounting-campaign-logo.png" alt="Conservancy accounting campaign logo" style="float:left;" />
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Update on 2014-12-03:</strong> As can be seen, Conservancy sadly
never reached our fundraising target for this project. However, as we
promised below, we <a href="http://npoacct.sfconservancy.org/">continue to
work on this project</a>. We'd really appreciate more donations, as we've
needed to make a lot of compromises in our plans since we didn't reach our
fundraising goal. We did complete Phase 0 described below
(<a href="http://npoacct.sfconservancy.org/">results are on our wiki</a>),
and Phase 1 now comprises the development of an REST API for double-entry
accounting which many applications (including this one) can use.</p>
</blockquote>
<br/>
<hr/>
<p>Conservancy has a plan to help all non-profit organizations (NPOs) by
creating an Open Source and Free Software accounting system usable by
non-technical bookkeepers, accountants, and non-profit managers. You can
help us do it by donating now.
</p>
<p>To keep their books and produce annual government filings, most NPOs rely
on proprietary software, paying exorbitant licensing fees. This is
fundamentally at cross purposes with their underlying missions of charity,
equality, democracy, and sharing.</p>
<p>You can help Conservancy fix this problem by <a href="#donate-box" class="donate-now">donating now</a>. We seek to
raise $75,000 to employ a
developer for one year to make substantial progress on this project.</p>
<p>This project has the potential to save the non-profit sector
millions in licensing fees every year. Even non-profits that continue to use proprietary accounting
software will benefit, since the existence of quality Open Source and Free
Software for a particular task curtails predatory behavior by proprietary
software companies, and creates a new standard of comparison.</p>
<p>But, more powerfully, this project's realization
will increase the agility and collaborative potential
for the non-profit sector &mdash; a boon to funders, boards, and employees &mdash; bringing the Free Software and general NPO communities
into closer collaboration and understanding.</p>
<p>Thanks in advance for <a href="#donate-box" class="donate-now">helping us</a> develop Free Software to benefit all
non-profit organizations, and the
populations they serve.</p>
<p>Donors of $500 or more will be acknowledged in the THANKS file and other
appropriate places in the codebase itself.</p>
<p><a href="#endorsements">Endorsers of this effort</a> include April, Fractured Atlas, The Free Software
Foundation, Mozilla Foundation, GNOME Foundation, OpenHatch, Open
Source Initiative, QuestionCopyright.org, and Software in the Public
Interest; all encourage you to <a href="#donate-box" class="donate-now">donate and support it</a>.</p>
<h3>Background</h3>
<p>Like many non-profit organizations (NPOs) in the USA, Conservancy's
financial accounts are audited annually by an independent accounting firm;
we recently completed our fiscal year 2011 audit. As usual, our auditors
asked plenty of questions about our accounting software. Conservancy uses
only Free Software, of course, centered around a set of straightforward reporting
scripts that we created to run on top
of <a href="http://www.ledger-cli.org/">Ledger CLI</a>. (Conservancy's
current configuration using Ledger CLI
is <a href="https://gitorious.org/ledger/npo-ledger-cli">publicly
documented and explained</a>.)</p>
<p>Our auditors were only familiar with proprietary accounting software, and
so our system seemed foreign to them, as it relies on Ledger CLI's text files, Emacs and
version control. During their questions
about our setup, we asked them to hypothetically prescribe a specific
proprietary software setup as a model for managing Conservancy's
accounts. Our chief auditor started by mentioning a few well-known
proprietary solutions. But then he paused and continued: <q>Given
that Conservancy's a fiscal sponsor with so many temporarily restricted
accounts, existing systems really wouldn't do that good of a job for
you</q>.</p>
<p>Indeed, Conservancy reached out into the broader fiscal sponsorship
community beyond the <abbr title="Free, Libre and Open Source Software">FLOSS</abbr>
<abbr title="Non-profit Organization">NPO</abbr> community and discovered that many larger fiscal sponsors &mdash; even
those willing to use proprietary components &mdash; have cobbled together
their own unique systems, idiosyncratically tailored to their specific
environments. Thus, good, well-designed, and reusable accounting software
for non-profit fiscal sponsorship is not just missing in the software
freedom community; it's missing altogether.</p>
<p>The project that Conservancy proposes will take a modest step
forward in creating a better solution for everyone.
<a href="#quotes">Many NPO leaders and academics agree</a> with Conservancy about the
immediate need for work to begin on this
effort. <a id="endorsements"
style="text-decoration:none"></a><a href="http://april.org">April</a>, <a href="https://www.fracturedatlas.org">Fractured Atlas</a>, The <a href="http://fsf.org">Free Software

<a href="http://QuestionCopyright.org">QuestionCopyright.org</a>, and <a href="http://www.spi-inc.org/">Software in the Public Interest</a> have
all endorsed Conservancy's plan, and they encourage you to <a href="#donate-box" class="donate-now">donate and
support it</a>.</p>
<p>Conservancy is uniquely qualified to undertake this task. Using only Free
Software, Conservancy already meets the complex accounting challenges of
earmarked, directed donations for over thirty different projects. We've
learned much about this work in our first seven years of
operation, and we're prepared to apply what we've learned to solve
this problem not just for ourselves, but for anyone who seeks a
solution that both respects software freedom and handles non-profit
accounting for all sorts of NPOs, including fiscal sponsors. General NPO
accounting is just a &ldquo;base case&rdquo; of fiscal sponsorship (i.e.,
an NPO is just a fiscal sponsor for one and only one specific project),
and Conservancy therefore believes a solution that handles fiscal sponsors
will also handle the simpler case as well.</p>
<h3>The Plan</h3>
<p>Conservancy proposes to hire a software developer for one year to
accomplish the first two phases of this project. Conservancy seeks to
raise $75,000 toward this project to help cover salary and benefits for a
full-time staffer to work on this project. We ask that you give generously
via the donation buttons on this page to support our work.</p>
<h4>Phase 0</h4>
<p>Some Free Software accounting systems do exist. A previous informal
survey of these systems that Conservancy conducted in 2007 led us to the
conclusion that, in general, these systems were heavily geared toward
for-profit endeavors, ignored the unique needs of NPOs generally, and
were completely hopeless for the specific needs of a fiscal sponsoring
organization. Conservancy's assessment at the time was that these
challenges could be addressed only with a large rewrite of one of these
systems. Conservancy chose
<a href="http://www.ledger-cli.org/">Ledger CLI</a> precisely because
it provided flexibility and configurability not present in any other Free Software
double-entry accounting system.</p>
<p>However, while that previous informal survey informs Conservancy's
existing hypothesis that Ledger CLI is the right base system here,
Conservancy will first test that hypothesis. The first phase of this
project (estimated to last approximately 6-8 full-time weeks) will produce
a written survey of all known Free Software accounting systems, and
indicate what challenges exist to adapt such systems for the needs of
NPOs. The <a href="https://fsf.org/">Free Software Foundation</a> has
pledged their help in the evaluation of SQL-Ledger,
and <a href="http://www.gnome.org/foundation/">the GNOME Foundation</a> has pledged their
help in the evaluation of <a href="http://www.gnucash.org/">GNUcash</a> (which they
currently use, respectively).</p>
<h4>Phase 1</h4>
<p>Phase 1 of the project will select the preferred codebase from Phase 0,
and improve that system to create a basic accounting system for
small-to-medium sized USA NPOs (i.e., Form 990-filers) &mdash; including fiscal
sponsors &mdash; with the following features:
<ul>
<li>Basic accounts payable/receivable (with invoicing)</li>
<li>Tracking and reporting of non-profit income types (related business
income, unrelated business taxable income, donations, etc.)</li>
<li>Basic backup documentation tracking for expenses and payments</li>
<li>Basic bank statement reconciliation reporting</li>
<li>Basic annual audit preparation reporting
(A <a href="https://github.com/ledger/ledger/tree/next/contrib/non-profit-audit-reports">prototype
of this portion is already complete</a> and has been relied on for
real-life audits; but the prototype is just a hack and needs to be
rewritten.)</li>
<li>Ability to easily handle all these features on a project-by-project
subset of the accounts, and to easily export and excise that subset from
the system. (i.e., support for temporarily restricted assets, earmarked for
fiscal-sponsored projects)</li>
<li>Multi-currency support and reporting</li>
</ul>
<p>We will consider the first year of this project successful <em>only if all these
functions can be performed by a bookkeeper who is generally qualified as a
bookkeeper</em>, but not necessarily familiar with standard Free Software tools
such as GNU/Linux, Emacs, version control, and command line scripts. This
requirement is essential: Conservancy's existing system using Ledger CLI
already provides sufficient functionality to manage non-profit accounting,
but our system requires a bookkeeper who is also adept with the
aforementioned tools already.</p>
<p>Finally, while the first year of work focuses on USA NPO needs,
Conservancy seeks to lead an international effort, and welcomes
contributions and input from everyone in the non-profit community from
around the world. Conservancy has created
a <a href="http://lists.sfconservancy.org/mailman/listinfo/npo-accounting">mailing
list for discussion of this project</a> and
a <a href="http://npoacct.sfconservancy.org">Wiki for collaboration</a> and encourages interested parties
from around the world to join the mailing list and contribute to the
project!</p>
<h3>Why Conservancy Must Fund This Work</h3>
<p>As it stands, nearly all Open Source and Free Software NPOs either use
proprietary software, or fully outsource their bookkeeping and accounting
to third-parties. Those that don't do so (such as Conservancy and the Free
Software Foundation) have long complained that existing Free Software in
this area is inadequate, and have been forced to develop customized,
one-off solutions in-house to make the systems work.</p>
<p>It's highly unlikely that the for-profit sector will adapt existing Free
Software accounting systems to meet the differing needs of NPOs (let alone
the more complex needs of fiscal sponsors; based on
advice from our auditors and other fiscal sponsors, Conservancy understands that <em>no existing
solution &mdash; proprietary or Free &mdash; meets the requirements of fiscal sponsorship accounting</em>). Fiscal sponsors like
Conservancy must track a separate set of books for every project, keeping
in mind that a project may leave at any time for another NPO and need to take
their books with them. Yet, the books of the entire organization are the
aggregate of the books of all these projects, and internally, they need to
be presented as a single set of books for those purposes.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, even if an organization is not a fiscal sponsor, non-profit
accounting is <em>just different</em> than for-profit accounting, particularly in
the USA. For example, for-profit-oriented systems often make problematic
assumptions about the workflow of accounting tasks (often because NPOs
rely primarily on donations, rather than fee-for-service or widget-selling
income). Also, non-profit income is categorized differently than
for-profit income, and the reporting requirements vary wildly from their
for-profit equivalents.</p>
<p>Conservancy's existing system is working adequately, but requires daily
the relatively more expensive time of a highly technical person to do the
job of bookkeeping. Also, the system cannot easily be adapted in its
current form for another NPO, unless they also have a
skilled technical employee to act as bookkeeper. This project aims to build
on what Conservancy has learned and produce a non-profit accounting system
that corrects these flaws.</p>
<p>Finally, Conservancy's mission (as stated
on <a href="http://sfconservancy.org/docs/conservancy_Form-1023.pdf">our Form
1023 with the USA IRS</a>) includes producing Open Source and Free Software.
Thus, this project is a great way to pursue Conservancy's mission and address a
specific need that so many NPOs (including us) have. If no one steps up to create Free Software to replace the widely used
proprietary software, NPOs in aggregate will pay <em>much more</em> money for
proprietary licensing than Conservancy will ever spend in developing a
replacement. Please <a href="#donate-box" class="donate-now">donate
generously</a> to help us do it!</p>
