What is the responsibility of a non-profit organization serving as a fiscal agent for a citizen media initiative?
A. For New Voices funding, the nonprofit organization is the grantee and is responsible for ensuring that the promised scope of work is fulfilled. The nonprofit organization is also responsible for overseeing how all the funding is spent and for issuing, and certifying the accuracy of, any narrative and financial reports required under the New Voices grant. If a charitable organization is serving as a fiscal agent for a proposed citizen media project, it must submit a letter attesting how it will fulfill its responsibilities and how the proposed project fits its mission.
