Case Study: Dawson Creek Society for Community Living achieves 50% faster finance operations and 22% lower transportation costs with Sage Intacct

Dawson Creek Society for Community Living takes care of its finances with Sage

Dawson Creek Society for Community Living is a Canadian nonprofit founded in 1958 that provides housing, programs, and advocacy for people with developmental disabilities and seniors. With a $12M CAD budget, growing services and diverse government funding created complex reporting needs, and the organization’s legacy accounting and payroll tools couldn’t support electronic invoicing, remote work, or scalable financial workflows—especially during COVID-19.

By implementing Sage Intacct (with Cantatus Systems) and integrating Yooz for AP automation, Dawson Creek moved to paperless processes, streamlined its chart of accounts, and automated reconciliations. The finance team’s efficiency improved 50%, audit risk fell by over 50%, transportation costs dropped 22%, and the nonprofit built $200,000 CAD into reserves—delivering faster reporting, greater budget visibility, and stronger leadership confidence for future growth.
