Quick answer

Use it right after publishing financials: donors and members submit what they don't understand, what worries them or what they want next period, each item categorized and logged for the board's next meeting. It is an accountability channel — not an audit and no opinion on your finances.

About this template

Transparency doesn't end at publication — it starts there. When donors and members read your financials, questions form; without a channel, those questions become rumors. This feedback form opens after each disclosure: readers submit what they don't understand, what worries them, or what they'd like to see next period — categorized, logged, and handed to the board as a real agenda item. It is a feedback and accountability channel; it is not an audit and produces no opinion on your finances.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this form audit our finances?
No — it collects questions and concerns about your published disclosure. Audits are conducted by qualified auditors under applicable rules; nothing here substitutes for that or certifies accuracy.
Why open feedback right after publishing?
Because that's when readers exist. A transparency channel announced three months later finds nobody with the report open.
Can concerns be submitted anonymously?
Yes — identity is optional; the private-versus-public answer choice still routes the reply correctly for signed entries.
Is it free to use?
Yes. Copy it into your FormLM workspace and announce it together with each disclosure.
What goes to the board packet?
All concerns plus the most-frequent clarifications, each citing its document line — that's what turns disclosure into dialogue.
Legal or sensitive worries?
The concern category flags them for your board's judgment; matters with legal weight follow your governing documents and, where needed, professional advice.
