Charitable Ventures

Charitable Ventures currently supporting several large-scale regional initiatives focused on solving longer-term health and social development issues. Fiscal sponsorship is a relationship between a 501(c)3 nonprofit and an emerging project that needs administration and management, but that doesn’t yet have its own tax exempt status. Often these projects are "testing a concept" on the philanthropic market, or trying to meet a critical need in the community, and they need a safe space to do so. While back-office operations are critical, and can get a project growing quickly, incubation is the coaching and consulting supports new projects often need to move in the right direction. Organizational development issues - like creating sustainable business and staffing models, clear and effective communications, and strong partnerships - can be the deciding factor as to whether a project struggles to launch or effectively makes an impact. We bring new ideas to the social market, but we also help support tried and true nonprofits with capacity building services that help them achieve their mission. Our consultants and experts offer support to nonprofit clients through fund development, evaluation, marketing, facilitation and many other services.
