Fiscal Sponsorship

We Offer Support.

“A fiscal sponsor is a nonprofit organization that provides fiduciary oversight, financial management, and other administrative services to help build the capacity of charitable projects.” — via National Council of Nonprofits

The Sioux Falls Arts Council proudly offers fiscal sponsorship to local organizations. This relationship enables emerging arts organization an opportunity to use the Sioux Falls Arts Council’s 501c3 status if their organization does not possess one or are planning on attaining one in the future. Donations to these organizations are thus considered tax deductible.
