Our fiscal sponsorship program serves individual artists and arts groups/collectives who are leading arts-focused public benefit projects.

AFCC Fiscal Sponsorship is a financial and administrative tool that helps these groups fundraise. Through our program, they can access some of the benefits typically reserved for 501c3 organizations (such as receiving grants restricted to 501c3s and offering donors a tax deduction) and receive feedback from AFCC Fiscal Sponsorship staff.
