Accordus exists to support growing non-profit and mission driven for-profit organizations. As organizations grow and accomplish their mission, they reach a critical point when much of their time is focused on doing the office work rather than accomplishing the mission. Accordus handles accounting, HR, donor management systems, and other industry-specific technical systems so the organization can focus on the mission, not the systems. Learn more at Accordus.com.
