Fiscal
Sponsorship
Future Coalition and March On Foundation have developed a signature 501(c)(4)/501(c)(3) fiscal sponsorship program to meet the specific demands of youth and grassroots organizers.
Over our years of experience as a fiscal sponsor and project incubator, we have perfected our very own model of fiscal sponsorship, based upon the precepts of the existing practicum, but refining the concept to meet the realities of the projects we serve. We offer the scope of services that are needed to best propel growing, innovative grassroots and youth-led organizations.
If you’re interested in fiscal sponsorship, please submit an application. We review and evaluate applications on a rolling basis, and will contact you if we think your project is a good fit.
We offer two different types of fiscal sponsorship – if accepted into the program, we will evaluate together, based on your needs, which track is best suited for you.
Turnkey is a plug-and-play fiscal sponsorship service, where we handle all of the tracking, organization, financial and administrative details so that project leaders can focus on the mission.
this track includes
- Shared bank account with other Turnkey projects
- ActBlue fundraising/contribution forms
- Tech, admin, legal and fundraising training
- Access to weekly office hours
- Dedicated Project Advocate
- Quarterly Reviews
fees
The fiscal sponsorship fee is 8% for fiscal projects with employees or contractors and 5% for all other projects.
