Our Comptroller trains student interns to assist with the audit, filing, report preparation, data entry, billing and invoice tracking.

Database
Ingleside maintains a funding database similar to Microsoft Outlook. Many of our records need to be updated, requiring volunteers to call to verify names, addresses and phone numbers. Volunteers can work from home or at our office, saving staff members valuable time.
