Part of the Flourish ecosystem

The back office your nonprofit deserves

Bower keeps your HR, payroll, grants, and finances all in one place — so you can spend less time wrangling spreadsheets and more time focused on the work that matters.

Five apps, one connected system

Each app handles a different part of your day-to-day. They all share the same information, so you only enter things once.

People & HR

Keep track of your team — who they are, what they're paid, their benefits, certifications, and compliance items. Everything about a person in one place.

  • Staff profiles
  • Pay & benefits
  • Certifications
  • Analytics

Payroll Allocations

Know exactly where your payroll dollars are going. Split staff costs across your contracts and grants each month, then send it straight to QuickBooks.

  • Monthly splits
  • Easy import
  • Reconciliation
  • QB export

Grants

See your grant awards, budgets, and spending all in one view. Organize programs under parent grants and move budget between them when plans change.

  • Award tracking
  • Budgets
  • QBO sync
  • Spending detail

Finance

See all your QuickBooks data without ever opening QuickBooks. Your team can review income, expenses, and budgets — and flag anything that looks off — without the risk of accidentally changing your books.

  • View QBO data safely
  • Flag issues
  • Budgets
  • Projections

Admin & Settings

Your leadership decides who can see what. Set up your contracts, QuickBooks classes, and chart of accounts once — and every app shares that same information automatically.

  • Access control
  • Enter once, use everywhere
  • QB classes & accounts
  • Contracts

Always up to date

Dashboards show live numbers every time you open them. No waiting for someone to run a report.

See where the money goes

Track exactly how payroll costs are split across your contracts and grants. No more guessing or digging through spreadsheets.

Use what you need
