Fiscal
sponsorship is an often maligned and frequently misused tool for funding
charitable activities in conducted by non-§501(c)(3)s. It does not exist in the Internal
Revenue Code or Regulations. The
law in this area is drawn from court cases, revenue rulings, private letter
rulings, and many lawyers’ creative thinking. There are varying uses for fiscal
sponsorship, as well as varying opinions on whether or not it even should be
used.
Emily
Robertson will provide a very quick overview and outline of fiscal sponsorship
and then facilitate a discussion among program attendees regarding ways they are
using fiscal sponsorship in their client base, concerns about the practice, and
present questions to their colleagues.
This
is the second topic of the Business Law Section’s Nonprofit Corporations
Committee brown bag lunch series.
We will meet at the MSBA offices at noon on April 14th. This is a brown-bag lunch. Water
and soft drinks will be provided.
