Our History

History Timeline

1989

The Vision Takes Root

NCheng LLP traces its beginnings to 1989, when our visionary founder, Nerou, recognized that nonprofit organizations often struggled to find high-quality audit and financial services tailored to their unique needs. Driven by a passion for making a difference, Nerou created a firm that combined deep sector expertise with unwavering integrity, collaboration, and a commitment to client service. This founding spirit set the tone for everything we do.

1990s

Building a Reputation for Excellence

During the early 1990s, NCheng LLP became formally established, laser-focused on empowering nonprofit organizations to achieve financial stability and transparency. Early successes in providing audit services paved the way for the firm’s future growth. Our steadfast commitment to a “client-first” philosophy earned us the trust of mission-driven organizations of all sizes and scopes.

2000s

Expanding Beyond Audits

As our clients’ needs grew, so did our service offerings. In the 2000s, we broadened beyond traditional audit services to include comprehensive financial management, operational consulting, and compliance support. We began serving a diverse range of organizations—from local grassroots nonprofits to large national institutions—helping them strengthen their operational foundations, remain in compliance with evolving regulations, and focus on achieving their missions.

2010s

Navigating Complexity and Change

The 2010s were marked by rapidly changing financial reporting standards and escalating demands for transparency. NCheng LLP rose to the challenge, developing innovative approaches and guidance to help nonprofits navigate ever-more complex regulatory landscapes. Our ability to combine technical expertise with personalized service solidified our reputation as a trusted advisor across the nonprofit sector, from healthcare and education to social services and arts organizations.

2020s

Leading with Innovation and Purpose

True to our founding ethos, we continue to innovate and adapt. In the 2020s, we expanded our capabilities to include strategic planning, risk management, and technology-driven solutions that boost financial oversight and operational efficiency. Regardless of the challenge, our mission has remained constant: to empower nonprofits with the tools and knowledge they need to thrive in an increasingly complex world.

2025

Looking Ahead

Looking ahead, the next chapter of NCheng LLP’s story is already unfolding. In 2025, Nerou appointed Faizan Younus as Managing Principal, ushering in a new era of leadership and vision. Under Faizan’s guidance, we remain committed to the same principles that have defined us from the start—integrity, collaboration, and an unwavering dedication to our clients’ success.

Looking Forward

As we continue to grow and evolve, our focus remains clear: supporting the nonprofit community with the highest standards of service and expertise. We firmly believe that when nonprofits thrive, the communities they serve benefit—and that spirit drives every engagement we undertake. Whether you are a longstanding partner or a new client, we invite you to join us on this journey as we keep building a brighter future, one mission at a time.
