I enjoy working at EOYDC because it has given me the opportunity to develop my skills and increase my knowledge of various accounting software. Moreover, people here trust and treat me with respect.

As the accountant for the East Oakland Youth Development Center, my job is to record, allocate and keep track of finances of the organization. I take care of the payroll for the independent contractors and make sure that the bills get paid on time. I also work with the payroll journal entries, bank reconciliations and record all cash donations to reflect the organization’s total donor revenue. Finally, I assist in preparing the yearly budget and provide financial statements and other fiscal information to auditors.

Being a single mom, I like the fact that EOYDC gives me the opportunity to bring my son to the Center after school. It gives me peace of mind knowing that he is in a safe environment and gets to enjoy all the programs and activities the Center has to offer our community.
