Fiscal Agent Requests

The FRN provides fiscal agent services to those organizations, programs or entities that would need a 501(c)3 status when applying for grant or other funding opportunities. The FRN Board will review all applications at their quarterly Board meetings. The FRN does ask for a 10% administrative fee if the grant/funding source allows it.
Questions on the applications or the review process can be directed to Diane Callison.
