Question: publishing budget on website?

Is there any reason why we should not post our budget on our website? We have the ability to post if for viewing by the general public or to members only.

Not at all. Posting your budget is a good idea. Being open with your records and making them broadly available is a good way to show that your group welcomes participation.

We definitely post our budget. We have really tried to maintain transparency and there are many parents who just can't attend the pto meetings. It's been really helpful for our parents.

Always stay transparent as an organization. Minutes, agenda, by-laws, treasurer's report and the budget should all be up to date on your webpage.
