Fiscal Sponsorship

Fiscal sponsorship is a complicated business model that requires rigorous fund accounting and segregation of assets. It is not, as some have simplified it to be, simply the “borrowing” of another nonprofit’s501(c)(3) status. Sponsored projects work with Charitable Ventures staff to raise and process donations for project operations. Charitable Ventures provides donors with tax receipt paperwork and grantors with general reports on project progress. Because we work with many projects simultaneously, each project receives a separate bank account and monthly financial statements that track transactions and use of restricted assets. In addition to having a stellar onsite accounting and project management team, we also partner with a law firm and audit firm that provide expertise and advice on our fiscal and legal processes. These expenses are covered by the fiscal fees.

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

Charitable Ventures of Orange County is dedicated to developing as an organization to meet the growing needs of the nonprofit sector. We believe that the model of fiscal sponsorship, which provides back office and business support to our sponsored projects, is a critical resource in the effort to address community challenges.

Charitable Ventures of Orange County is currently supporting several large-scale regional initiatives in addition to our continuing work on community projects. These regional efforts are focused on solving longer term health and social development issues in Orange County.

Our role will be to assist in efficiently distributing resources and to manage collaborative efforts among all the agencies involved to achieve the most effective, high-impact results.

We continue to build our Charitable Ventures of Orange County infrastructure, including staff and experienced consultants, required by these regional initiatives.

Charitable Ventures of Orange County has been steadily building our infrastructure and our capacity to support our clients and ultimately impact the community we serve.

We greatly appreciate our Supporters, Donors and Funders who believe in the work of our projects and our ability to provide comprehensive fiscal sponsorship services.

Charitable Ventures of Orange County is proud to partner with organizations supporting regional initiatives and will look for additional opportunities to help support collaboration that aims to positively impact our community.

We provide educational workshop opportunities for our projects and partners, and will continue to do so in the future.

Data
  • We analyze disaggregated data and root causes of race disparities that impact the organization's programs, portfolios, and the populations served.
  • We disaggregate data to adjust programming goals to keep pace with changing needs of the communities we support.
  • We employ non-traditional ways of gathering feedback on programs and trainings, which may include interviews, roundtables, and external reviews with/by community stakeholders.
  • We have long-term strategic plans and measurable goals for creating a culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
Policies and processes
  • We have community representation at the board level, either on the board itself or through a community advisory board.
  • We help senior leadership understand how to be inclusive leaders with learning approaches that emphasize reflection, iteration, and adaptability.
  • We engage everyone, from the board to staff levels of the organization, in race equity work and ensure that individuals understand their roles in creating culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
