Fiscal sponsors deal every day with grants to sponsored projects. Some sponsors do their own direct grantmaking, whether from hosted collaborative funds, DAFs, or sponsored projects that themselves offer regranting.

In all cases, there are considerations in the grantmaking process that are somewhat unique to fiscal sponsors.

• How does grantmaking take into account the health of both sponsor and projects?

• What terms of the grant agreement need to change?

• How do you handle optical or direct conflicts making grants to projects you also sponsor?

Join us for a conversation about what’s the same and what’s different about fiscally sponsored grantmaking.

Funders and sponsors that do their own grantmaking in one form or another are especially welcome to join this conversation.
