Your cause deserves every dollar.
Fiscal sponsorship with speed, full transparency, and fees that keep more money where it belongs.
We provide fiscal sponsorship for charitable causes in the U.S. and Israel. Choose the path that fits your situation.
Fiscal Sponsorship for Your Cause
You lead a charitable project in the U.S. or Israel, or you run an Israeli nonprofit (Amuta with Section 46 status) and need a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) so American donors can contribute tax-free through DAFs, corporate matching, and standard donations.
We create a dedicated campaign, manage the funds, and disburse bi-weekly at just 5%.
Apply for fiscal sponsorship ↓Donate to a Cause and Get a U.S. Tax Deduction
You want to support a specific charitable cause or Israeli nonprofit but need a U.S. tax receipt. We serve as your pass-through fiscal sponsor. Donate to us via credit card, check, DAF, or PayPal in the U.S. and receive a full tax receipt. For Israeli causes, we transfer the funds directly to the nonprofit (registered under Section 46).

Since October 7, 2023, we have watched incredible people step up with urgent causes. Security gear for combat units. Hot meals for the Israeli Air Force. Direct relief for widows and orphans. Community projects across the U.S. and Israel born from real need, led by people closest to the crisis.
And then we watched those same people run into a wall.
Donors in the U.S. had DAFs ready. Their companies offered matching programs. But the causes they cared about had no 501(c)(3). Israeli nonprofits doing the work on the ground were only tax-deductible in Israel. U.S.-based projects had no fiscal sponsor to process tax-deductible donations. The money was there. The will was there. The bridge was missing.
We became that bridge. Today, we provide fiscal sponsorship for charitable projects and organizations in both the United States and Israel.
5% administrative fee. Bi-weekly payouts. Zero red tape.
Most fiscal sponsors charge between 5% and 15% of every dollar raised. Traditional pass-through organizations absorb 20 to 25% in operating costs before a single dollar reaches the cause. We built a different fiscal sponsorship model.

Charitable Projects
From emergency relief efforts to community programs in the U.S. and Israel, we create dedicated campaign pages and manage fiscal sponsorship for targeted causes. Each project gets its own fundraising page, reporting, and a direct line to the people doing the work.
Individual Donors
Support a cause through your Donor Advised Fund, secure a corporate match from your employer, or receive a U.S. tax receipt for your contribution to a project in the U.S. or Israel. One organization. One receipt. Full compliance.
Raised and distributed since October 2023. Every dollar accounted for. Every disbursement documented.
