Jewish Federation of San Antonio is a responsible steward of the community’s money. As a charitable nonprofit organization, the Jewish Federation of San Antonio is required to receive an independent audit annually. An independent audit is an examination of the financial records, accounts, business transactions, accounting practices and internal controls of a charitable nonprofit by an independent auditor.
During the independent audit, the auditor will review the organization’s financial statements to determine whether they adhere to “generally accepted accounting principles.” Then, the Financial Accounting Standards Board principles require the auditors to issue a report to the board of directors of the nonprofit expressing a professional opinion about the organization’s financial practices; specifically, whether the financial statements “fairly present the financial position of the organization” without any inaccuracies or material misrepresentations.
As of 2022, our annual report is now included in the mailed Jewish Journal Fall print edition. This print edition is mailed across the community and is also available online at jewishsa.org.
In addition to a comprehensive breakdown of JFSA allocations to agencies around the world, the Jewish Journal Fall print also includes a donor roll call, and features impact stories about how Federation dollars are being utilized to strengthen Jewish communities everywhere.
