Empower Communities to Live INspired with Fiscal Sponsorship
What is Fiscal Sponsorship?
Fiscal sponsorship is a dynamic partnership between a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization (the fiscal sponsor) and a project or initiative that lacks its own tax-exempt status. Through this arrangement, the fiscal sponsor extends its legal and tax-exempt status to the sponsored project, allowing it to receive charitable contributions, grants, and other forms of financial support. This collaborative model enables non-exempt projects to access funding and administrative support while benefiting from the oversight and guidance of an established nonprofit entity.
Who is eligible for fiscal sponsorship?
Fiscal sponsorship allows eligible organizations or projects to apply for grants and accept donations without their own 501c3 status.
Charitable programs or groups that are…
Running a temporary or short-term project or event
Waiting for official 501c3 status from the IRS.
Not ready for the administrative burden of becoming a nonprofit.
Dealing with revocation of their tax-exempt status.
Testing out an idea for a charitable program before applying for 501c3 status
