About Community Compass

Community Compass has been providing accessible and affordable financial training and services to not-for-profits throughout NSW since 1991.
Formerly known as Central Coast Voluntary Treasurers Support Service, beginning with a small group of dedicated individuals who were committed to supporting the community sector, helping treasurers implement best practice when managing their organisation’s finances.
Over the years, with continued support from the NSW Government, Community Compass has evolved into a multi-faceted professional resource for the not-for-profit sector. Responding to the ever changing needs of the community sector we expanded our services to include education and training, as well as bookkeeping, systems analysis, committee awareness and board support.
Community Bookkeeping Solutions project was launched in 2005. Our vision is to provide the community sector with a well-resourced, flexible service meeting the needs of record keeping and accountability of all financial concerns for the organisation.
In 2008, we embarked on the exciting mission of re-defining our organisation to ensure that we connect with the community and promote our services within the sector. With the launch of our new name, motto and website, we have taken another step toward growth and success.
As we look toward a dynamic future, we proudly retain our key founding principle which is to strengthen the organisations that make our community strong.
