(CN!) offers administrative support to charitable grassroots projects through the fiscal sponsorship model. This program provides concierge services to projects which further our mission but often lack the resources, knowledge, or desire to obtain and maintain independent 501(c)3 status. Once vetted for mission alignment and formally adopted by the CN! Board of Directors, fiscally sponsored projects benefit from bookkeeping, financial and administrative services, publicity on CN! communications channels, networking opportunities with other projects and their volunteers, and a wide array of consulting services tailored to specific project needs. In 2024, our fiscal sponsorship program proudly housed nearly 20 projects. These projects are led by the project leaders who operate their programs largely on a volunteer basis. Project leaders come from diverse backgrounds, and are often from the communities served through their project operations through five broad approaches to community betterment: Arts & Culture, Community Connectedness, Education, Health & Wellness, and Stewardship. New projects adopted in 2024 include Designed for Hope, a women-run project that seeks to provide assistance to women at the crossroads of leaving homeless shelters, halfway houses, and transitional housing programs. Another new 2024 project was Portland based Re:Solve NW which seeks to build resilience by uniting community. 228 0 20736 Bioregionalism for social and economic resilience: CN! promotes greater community connectedness through bioregionalism. First, CN! utilizes its large social network, including over 22,000 Facebook followers and 5,700 newsletter subscribers, to promote Cascadian individuals and organizations in their own community-building pursuits. A monthly e-newsletter provides Cascadians with information about community events, organizational updates, and upcoming fiscally sponsored project events. We also offer free maps and posters created by Cascadian artists for download on our website. 0 0 0 366422 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 9 0 1 7 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 4 4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 OR WA X X Kristin Pederson 4256153050 722 N 84th St Seattle WA 98103 X Nicholas Bowcut Past President 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Rachelle Martin President 2 0 X X 0 0 0 Adam Wishard Treasurer 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Molly McKinney Secretary 1 0 X X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 194 0 3292 0 38250 265368 0 307104 Program Event Tickets 711510 3449 3449 0 0 Program Membership 624100 20736 20736 0 0 0 0 0 0 24185 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3292 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 600 600 0 0 600 331889 24785 0 0 X 34127 34127 100 100 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 106860 88636 18224 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 8967 7449 1518 0 41298 41298 0 0 5080 5080 0 0 1788 1788 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 89095 89095 0 0 4 4 0 0 13782 10828 2954 0 18528 15714 2814 0 0 0 0 0 35442 35442 0 4044 4044 0 0 0 0 0 2559 2559 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 12416 7303 5113 0 Program Event Tickets 2392 2392 0 0 Meals & Food 9839 9839 0 0 Facility Supplies 8901 8901 0 0 Books & Supplies 238 238 0 0 1585 1585 0 0 397045 366422 30623 0 309620 245647 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 309620 245647 9202 8350 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2359 2804 11561 11154 X 30624 33196 267435 201297 298059 234493 309620 245647 -65156 0 0 0 1590 0 X 0 0 0 X 223212 286924 214105 339164 303811 1367216 52024 39139 68997 50735 24185 235080 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 275236 326063 283102 389899 327996 1602296 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1602296 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 275236 326063 283102 389899 327996 1602296 1 1 0 0 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2804 2804 1 Concussion Alliance 3710 SW Donovan Street Seattle WA 98126 934965531 28848 0 Project Fund balance prior to independent 501c3 status Transferring of project fund balance to newly incorporated 501c3 project. 5 0 Schedule I, Part I, Line 2 These are primarily transferring a projects funds to a new fiscal sponsor, or if a project has gained independent 501c3 status, then we will transfer over their fund balance.
