For Model C fiscal sponsors
Give every project its own nonprofit toolkit, with your approval on every disbursement.
MonkeyPod is fund accounting, donor CRM, grant tracking and fundraising for fiscal sponsors and their projects, in one connected system.
Running a sponsorship program shouldn't mean running a help desk.
If this sounds like you, it's time for a new solution.
"Projects email you for balance updates."
Sponsees can't see their own money in real time, so every question lands in your inbox.
"You enter everything twice."
Donations land in one tool while the books live in QuickBooks or Intacct.
"Oversight lives in your inbox."
Disbursement requests and approvals happen over email and spreadsheets.
"Grant restrictions live in a spreadsheet."
Tracking what each award can pay for means reconciling by hand at report time.

One entry, visible to you and the project.

Built for Model C
Designed around how Model C actually works.
In a Model C relationship, you and your project are separate entities. You hold a restricted fund and regrant to the project, less your fee. That makes the approval step the heart of your oversight, so MonkeyPod puts it in the workflow rather than in your inbox.
Built by fiscal sponsorship experts.
Our CEO, Adam Huttler, founded Fractured Atlas and built the technology behind its fiscal sponsorship program. He spent two decades working with sponsored projects and learning what sponsors need to keep things running smoothly.
The result is software shaped by the daily realities of fiscal sponsorship, giving projects the tools and financial insight they need for their everyday work while helping sponsors manage a growing program.

Questions sponsors ask
Last updated: October 6, 2026
-
A pre-approved grant relationship. The sponsor and the project are separate entities; the sponsor holds a restricted fund and regrants money to the project, less administrative fees.
-
No. Each sponsored project gets its own workspace as part of your subscription. We'll walk through the details in your demo.
-
No. Each project sees only its own donations, donors and expenses. Your team can see every project.
-
Yes, award by award. You book each grant to a subaccount of the project's restricted fund, and it appears on the project's books automatically. Projects see what's available from each grant and can ask to draw from a specific one; when you approve a disbursement, you choose which restricted fund it comes from.
-
Our team handles the migration with you, including tying past donations to the right projects.
