About this template
A Comprehensive Fiscal Sponsorship Contract under USA law is a legal template designed to regulate the relationship between a fiscal sponsor and a sponsored project or organization. Fiscal sponsorship refers to a legal arrangement in which a tax-exempt organization (the fiscal sponsor) provides administrative, financial, and legal support to a project or organization that lacks its own tax-exempt status (the sponsored project).

This template aims to outline the terms and conditions of this partnership, ensuring that both parties understand their rights and obligations throughout their collaboration. It typically covers a wide range of topics, including but not limited to:

1. Definition of the parties: Identifying the fiscal sponsor and the sponsored project or organization, detailing their respective roles and responsibilities.

2. Purpose and goals: Clearly defining the objectives and activities of the sponsored project and how they align with the fiscal sponsor's mission.

3. Financial matters: Outlining the procedures for receiving and disbursing funds, budget development, financial reporting, and any specific restrictions or requirements related to grants or donations.

4. Governance and decision-making: Describing the decision-making structures and processes between the fiscal sponsor and the sponsored project, such as board representation, voting rights, and decision-making authority.

5. Legal compliance: Ensuring that both parties comply with all applicable laws, regulations, and reporting requirements, including tax obligations, insurance coverage, and adherence to the fiscal sponsor's policies.

6. Termination provisions: Detailing the circumstances and procedures for ending the fiscal sponsorship relationship, including potential reasons for termination, notice requirements, and any specific provisions related to the transfer of assets or obligations.

7. Intellectual property: Addressing ownership and use of any intellectual property developed or utilized by the sponsored project during the fiscal sponsorship, such as copyrights, trademarks, or patents.

8. Liability and indemnification: Allocating responsibilities and potential liabilities between the fiscal sponsor and the sponsored project, including provisions for indemnification and insurance coverage.

Comprehensive Fiscal Sponsorship Contracts ensure transparency, define expectations, and protect the interests of both parties involved. They are essential legal documents that establish a framework for collaboration and assist in maintaining compliance with the laws and regulations governing fiscal sponsorship in the United States.
