Philadelphia Unemployment Project & Unemployment Information Center
Explore fiscal sponsorship for partner organization
Help partner to continue advocating for restaurant workers in PA and across the country
Posted May 23, 2025
Background & Context
Our partner is a local, unincorporated affiliate of a national organization. The national organization will soon be declaring bankruptcy, and several local affiliates are exploring ways to continue their work. There are several grant opportunities available for our partner in the near future, but they require a fiscal sponsor to receive and manage any funds.
Work & Deliverables
Provide guidance on becoming a fiscal sponsor. Potentially assist in developing and review related documents and agreements.
Philadelphia Unemployment Project & Unemployment Information Center
Since 1975, the Philadelphia Unemployment Project has organized the poor and unemployed to fight for economic justice, bringing diverse groups together to bring about major changes that benefit millions of unemployed and impoverished people. PUP has helped the unemployed link with coalition partners in the labor, religious, community, civil rights, and women’s movements to increase our power. Our victories prove that, once organized, working people and the unemployed can be a powerful voice in the city, state, and nation. Through our Unemployment Information Center, we also provide Philadelphia’s unemployed and working poor with a variety of direct services to sustain them during difficult times. These services include foreclosure and eviction prevention counseling, help navigating the unemployment benefits system, and a reverse commute program to help them get to difficult-to-reach jobs in the suburbs.
