Overview
This grant to the Tides Center as fiscal sponsor of the True Cost collaborative will go toward continued research, collaboration, communication, and tool development to support indirect cost recovery by grantees. The collaborative, which began in 2016 and now has 12 participating foundations, seeks for the sector to better assess and pay for indirect costs that nonprofit organizations incur when delivering on project grants. The members have agreed on common best practices and are leading changes within their respective organizations. These efforts include changing internal policies, designing methods for understanding grantee cost structures, developing trainings for program staff, and learning from and mobilizing peers.
