Fiscal sponsorship plays a critical—yet often misunderstood—role in supporting community-rooted work. This six-part brown-bag Lunch & Learn virtual series is designed to give funders a practical, nuanced understanding of fiscal sponsorship as both an operational model and a strategic tool for advancing impact.
Across six monthly sessions, participants will explore how fiscal sponsorship functions in practice; why projects choose this structure; how due diligence, equity, and impact measurement look within sponsored models; and how funders can engage more effectively and responsibly with fiscally sponsored work. Each 45-minute session, held the first Thursday of each month from 12:00–1:00 PM will combine brief framing with facilitated discussion, centering real-world experience and shared learning rather than formal presentation.
Sessions are intended to stand alone, yet collectively offer a cohesive learning arc—from foundational concepts to long-term partnership strategies.
This series is made possible through generous support from The Philadelphia Cultural Fund.
