Andrew Schulman – Fiscal Sponsorship for Small Nonprofits – Episode 010

Today’s guest is Andrew Schulman, who helps nonprofits arrange for fiscal sponsorship. What is fiscal sponsorship? A small nonprofit waiting for its 501c3 letter might want a fiscal sponsor to accept donations while waiting for their tax-exempt status. Another might choose to let a larger organization handle the back-end of the finances while they focus on their program. It’s an innovative way to set up your organization that might be attractive to many nonprofits out there.

About Andrew

Before starting Schulman Consulting, Andrew held senior roles at a number of small and early stage nonprofits after more than a decade in for-profit roles focused on operations, marketing and digital product development. He holds an MBA from the University of Southern California and a dual Bachelor’s of Science from Northwestern University in Communications and Psychology.

Erik is an absolute joy to work with. He took the time to understand our organization and board dynamics weeks before the retreat and gave everyone the opportunity to voice their thoughts on retreat priorities and objectives. He even made time to talk to any staff or board member one-on-one, anonymously, to be sure that any behind-the-scenes concerns would be addressed. At the retreat itself, he was an excellent facilitator that helped us to lead ourselves through our visioning and next-step process. His recommendations came from deep experience and helped us to streamline and reimagine how we operate both logistically and in service of our mission. I can’t recommend him enough.
