Update on ERPNext implementation at NPOs

FOSS for non-profit organisations

FOSS United helps non-profit organisations get access to a large number of business tools that help them manage their day to day affairs easily, everything from HR, payroll, and accounting to customer relations and communications. We do this by offering cloud hosting of the free and open source ERPNext suite and training and onboarding at a nominal cost.

More details about the program here.
