Build your audience, raise money and market your film with FromTheHeartProductions.com

What is Fiscal Sponsorship?

Fiscal Sponsorship is a financial and legal system by which a legally recognized 501(c)(3) public charity (such as From the Heart Productions) provides limited financial and legal oversight for a campaign initiated independently by an artist. That campaign might be a one-time project or an independent artist or even an arts organization that does not have its own 501(c)(3) status. Once sponsored in this way, the campaign is eligible to solicit and receive grants and tax-deductible contributions that are normally available only to 501(c)(3) organizations.
