Grant Allocation and Reporting Policy
Expense Allocation and Final Report Submission Requirements for Fiscally Sponsored Projects
Fiscally Sponsored Projects that receive or utilize grant funding administered by NOPI are responsible for ensuring that all expenses associated with the funded activities are properly allocated to the applicable grant.
Expense Allocation
Projects must allocate expenses to the appropriate grant account when grant funds are designated for those expenses. If a grant is being utilized for a program, project activity, or operational cost, all eligible expenses related to that activity must be charged to the grant in accordance with the grant’s approved budget, restrictions, and reporting requirements.
Projects are responsible for ensuring that expenses submitted for reimbursement or payment are:
-
Allowable under the grant agreement
-
Consistent with the approved grant budget
-
Properly documented and submitted within required timelines
NOPI reserves the right to request additional documentation to verify that expenses charged to a grant comply with the terms of the funding agreement and applicable nonprofit regulations.
Grant Reporting
Projects must provide NOPI with a complete copy of the final grant report submitted to the funder for any grant administered through NOPI. This includes both narrative and financial reports, along with any supporting documentation submitted to the funder.
The final report must be shared with NOPI no later than five (5) business days after submission to the funder, unless otherwise specified in writing.
Failure to provide required grant reports may result in delayed payments, suspension of grant-related transactions, or other administrative actions necessary to ensure compliance with grant requirements.
