SeriesFest’s Fiscal Sponsorship Program is a pathway to funding that will carry your project through every stage of its life cycle.
What is a Fiscal Sponsorship?
Fiscal sponsorship is an arrangement between an existing 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and an individual or entity lacking the legal status needed to receive grants from foundations, individual donors and government agencies.
What types of projects are eligible?
The program is open to episodic content projects of any length and short films at any stage of development. Projects must have a minimum $10,000 budget.
US and international applicants are welcome to apply.

- A competitive 7% on all donations to SeriesFest to support administrative and accounting fees
- Tax deduction to US-based donors for all fully-deductible donations
- Discretionary oversight to ensure compliant use of funds
- Donation processing via credit card, PayPal, Apple Pay, check, and ACH
- Real time donation and payment tracking

Note: Fiscal sponsorship does not include direct funding from SeriesFest. This program enables you to receive tax-deductible donations and apply for grants typically reserved for nonprofits. Sponsored projects are responsible for their own fundraising efforts.
