Let us help you help others
Fiscal sponsorship means you team up with an established nonprofit—your sponsor—to accomplish your charitable goals. A fiscal sponsor is a tax-exempt entity that provides your project with administrative, accounting, fundraising, and legal services, freeing you from having to spend time on these onerous tasks
SWF Center believes that it is important for groups starting out to have the support of fiscal sponsorship, which makes funding and financial support possible. As a 501c(3) organization we see this as part and parcel of our work toward social justice. Projects we have been Fiscal Sponsor for ABUNDANT BEGINNINGS and BEN HAZARD TRIBUTE
Your Help Starts Here
Whenever SWFCenter has called for help, like a “Go Fund Me” campaign, tickets, T-shirts for sale, or people coming out, YOU come through! We have received donations from $1,000 – $5. You’ve selected us to become your fiscal sponsor. You have extended an invitation to screen the film – “Evolutionary Blues” with Q & A and a paid honorarium! You’ve Friended us on Facebook! These are some of the ways you have shown ongoing support for the work of our small organization.
We thank you for all your past, current, and future support!
