What is Fiscal Sponsorship?
NYFA Fiscal Sponsorship is a fundraising and administrative tool available to U.S.-based artists and arts organizations in all disciplines. Fiscal sponsorship allows you to use NYFA’s 501(c)(3) charitable status to apply for grants and corporate sponsorship, in addition to offering individual donors the incentive of a tax deduction.
