All Vote No Play (AVNP)
Legal Advice on Fiscal Partnerships
We are looking to move our initiative to a fiscal sponsor and we will need some legal advice.
Posted November 1, 2022
Background & Context
In the short term we want to find a partner for All Vote No Play while we raise money and grow. We have received interest from funders and we want to capitalize on the enthusiasm of our work. We are uncertain about becoming a 501 c3 in the long run.
Work & Deliverables
After the election, we will be looking to move from a stand alone initiative to a fiscal sponsor. We will need legal advice on the parameters of the sponsorship as we evaluate where to land.
Preparation Phase
- Intro call with Executive Director
Collaboration Phase
- Complete research on fiscal sponsorship contracts
- Review initial proposals from AVNP and proposals from the fiscal sponsors
Wrap Up
- Finalize contract with new fiscal sponsor
All Vote No Play (AVNP)
We are a non-partisan initiative focused on engaging student athletes, coaches and administrators to exercise their civic power while strengthening their sense of community. We provide sports focused non-partisan resources aimed to make civic engagement joyful, build stronger teams and reinforce commitment to community. No one in the civic engagement space has the network, background, and personal relationships we have. The NCAA has made civic engagement on election day a mandated off day and AVNP played a major role in that legislation becoming a reality. We believe that all schools have an opportunity to infuse their athletic programs with meaningful civic values and activities. We’ve designed “civic drills” and resources to provide the most comprehensive— and impactful resources specifically geared toward this unique audience. There is a valuable opportunity to engage nearly 500,00 student athletes nationwide. We believe that coaches/administrators are uniquely positioned to help athletes see themselves as capable and confident voters, contributors, and leaders of civic life. Here is a short highlight reel of the Engaged Athlete All-Star meeting we hosted a couple of weeks ago with Stephen Curry, Dr. Condoleezza Rice, Tara Vanderveer among others that reached thousands of student athletes.
