Fiscal Sponsorship – In light of the recent problems with Park Alliance, we investigated other options. (CSFN is not recommending anyone. Do you own research in this matter). In the San Francisco area, several organizations offer fiscal sponsorship services for nonprofits and projects. Notable options include San Francisco Study Center, Tides Foundation, Intersection for the Arts, SOMArts, and Community Initiatives. San Francisco Beautiful also provides fiscal sponsorship for projects aligning with their mission.
Here is a national register of fiscal sponsors: https://fiscalsponsordirectory.org/
