Fiscal sponsorship administrative charge:
We tell people to expect the typical range of 5%-15%, but what we charge depends on how the fiscal sponsorship affects our insurance, tax reporting, accounting, liability and staffing. We aim to stay within a reasonable charge that compensates us accordingly for the service we provide, yet helps a future nonprofit take flight.
