Fiscal Sponsorship
In our efforts to promote and support high-level languages, reproducible scientific research and open-source development, NumFOCUS offers a Fiscal Sponsorship program. The Fiscal Sponsorship program is a way for for donors to financially contribute toward the progress of a NumFOCS affilaited project while also receiving benefits of contributing to 501(c)3 charity. In our Fiscal Sponsorship program, the nonexempt project must act so as to further the exempt purposes of NumFOCUS.
Fiscal Sponsorship is a an arrangement between a 501(c)(3) public charity and a project (that does not have that tax status) in which, typically, the charity receives and expends funds to advance the charitable work of the project while retaining discretion and control over the funds.
