Join Tom Lothamer, president of Life Matters Worldwide, along with Jim Sprague and James Quist as we discuss the importance of both financial and operational risk management for your pregnancy help organization.
During this webinar we will discuss the risks, both financial and ministry operations, a pregnancy help organization may experience and what steps the organization should take to protect themselves from such risks. We will spend some time discussing fundamental controls all organizations should have in place.
Without becoming aware of the risks facing the ministry and staff, we will certainly not achieve long-term success and maybe even fail in our mission and vision. Don't miss your chance to hear from ministry experts on this important topic!
