Services
Services
As a comprehensive fiscal sponsorship platform, we offer a wide range of services to our partner organizations, including:
Financial management and reporting
We provide support and guidance in building and implementing a financial plan, creating and managing budgets, and supporting funder reports.
Compliance and legal support
We help organizations understand and eventually navigate the legal and regulatory requirements associated with nonprofit status, including tax-exemption status, incorporation, and compliance with IRS rules.
Grant management and administration
We provide support with grant management. This involves creating and implementing systems to ensure that grant proposals are submitted on time, grant awards are managed effectively, and grant reporting requirements are met. We will support in developing budgets, tracking grant expenses, and ensuring compliance with grant regulations.
Capacity building support
We offer a range of consulting services to help organizations build capacity and achieve their goals. We work with you to develop your organization’s internal capacity to achieve its mission and goals effectively and efficiently. This involves assessing an organization’s strengths and weaknesses and identifying areas where it can improve its operations and processes to better achieve its objectives.
How It Works
Our process is designed to provide customized support and guidance throughout the engagement.

It starts with a comprehensive application that helps us understand your organization and your goals.

Incubation
During the two-year incubation period, we provide ongoing support and guidance, including strategic planning and implementation support; financial management and reporting; compliance and legal assistance; human resources support; grant management and administration; and capacity-building support.
TAX-EXEMPTION
Towards the end of the incubation period, we work with you to set up your own independent tax-exempt organization.
