To support the nonprofit sector through donor advised funds, fiscal sponsorship, nonprofit lending, and customized philanthropic solutions.
Fiscal sponsorship. fjc incubates a wide range of nonprofit organizations and projects that have not received their 501(c)(3) status. our scaled platform provides operational efficiencies to participants, allowing them to receive tax-deductible contributions and distribute funds as grants or vendor payments. while some organizations "graduate" from our fiscal sponsorship and receive their own 501(c)(s) designation, others prefer to stay with fjc to take advantage of our cost-effective services. the program is flexible regarding mission, serving organizations that focus on arts, education, social services, health, religion, the environment, and more.
Agency loan fund. a bespoke impact investment offered to our donors as part of our standard investment menu, fjc's agency loan fund (alf), allows donors the opportunity to invest a portion of their accounts in loans to a diversified pool of nonprofit organizations. fjc staff originate and underwrite these loans, which are approved by a subcommittee of fjc's board, which maintains rigorous credit standards. interest and principal payments from the loans grow the accounts of participating donors (typically between 4-6% per annum). in addition to fjc's rigorous credit standards, credit enhancement on the pool protects donors from principal losses. since its inception, fjc has deployed over $400 million in loans through alf. fjc currently has $16.4 million in loans outstanding with 13 nonprofit borrowers.
Efas - assets held for others. assets held for others are funds received from not-for-profit organizations, some of which have transferred funds to fjc for the purpose of investing in fjc's agency loan fund, which is available to provide secured interest-bearing loans to charitable organizations. these funds can be redeemed by the participants in accordance with fjc's policies. fjc does not have variance power over the use of these assets. assets held for others are subject to a management fee up to 1% annually based upon funds investment allocation.
Revenue grew from $41.0M (FY2018) to $79.4M (FY2024) across 7 reported years.
