What We Do

Support Social Entrepreneurs & Small Organizations

Since 2007, CORE Foundation has helped others be the change they want to see in the world through a fiscal sponsor model. Fiscal Sponsorship enables you, or a small group of changemakers, to achieve positive change under our 501(c)3 nonprofit umbrella. We call the leaders of these groups social entrepreneurs.

When you become a CORE Foundation CORE Cause, social entrepreneurs can use our nonprofit infrastructure, administrative resources, and mentoring to ignite your vision for social good.

Projects include supporting families living with cancer, championing veterans’ issues, battling homelessness, and fighting food insecurity. CORE Foundation’s leadership team assists in incubating those visions and bringing them to life in a supportive environment. Acting as a host for a CORE Cause’s effort benefits the entire community. It allows us to work together to be agents of change.

CORE Foundation helps social entrepreneurs

  • identify support for their plans
  • market their initiatives
  • by contributing resources to get them started
  • by providing an infrastructure that improves their chances of success

Some of our CORE Causes have received local and national media coverage. Join us, and we will show you how to follow in their footsteps and “Be the Change” in your community.

As a nonprofit organization with a reputation for supporting others, our CORE Causes benefit from the relationships we have built in the community.

Support We Provide

Realistically, doing good can come at a financial cost. Starting up a 501(c)3 can cost upwards of $5,000 in addition to annual operational expenses along with navigating stacks of required paperwork and compliance regulations. The process encounters hidden roadblocks and unknown “gotchas.” CORE Foundation takes the administrative burden off the social entrepreneurs so that they can focus on making a difference. We are your backbone and enable you to do good with ease. CORE Foundation offers many services to our CORE Causes.

These include but are not limited to:

  • Bookkeeping
  • Online Banking Establishment
  • Annual Tax Preparation and Filing
  • Personalized Fundraising / Ticketing Options
  • Online FUNdraising and Sponsor Incubation Strategy
  • Grant Support and Guidance
  • Business and Executive Coaching
  • Thought Leadership
  • Training Workshops for Cause Leaders
  • Office 365 Licenses, including Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Teams, SharePoint, etc.
  • CORE Foundation Email Account
  • Mailchimp Email and List Management
  • Google Ads Advertising
  • Social Media Posts on CORE Foundation Accounts
  • CORE Foundation Established Partnerships, Relationships, and Reputation
  • CORE Cause Webpage

Next Steps to Becoming a CORE Cause

The leaders of CORE Foundation are experts in their own respective fields of work. After receiving a viable request for fiscal sponsorship, we conduct an introductory call to understand the vision of the social entrepreneur and societal need to be addressed. Once accepted as a sponsored project and the fiscal sponsorship contract is executed, we assist in project plan development to be deployed by the new CORE Cause.

The CORE Foundation infrastructure improves the project’s chance of success. By leveraging CORE Foundation’s reputation, our CORE Causes immediately benefit from our established relationships in the community and expert advice on fundraising. We provide the tools you need to be successful and the ability to collect 501(c)3 donations quickly.
