HIPHI works with partners to provide fiscal administrative and management services for projects related to HIPHI’s mission. HIPHI can provide varying levels of support, depending on the specific needs of your organization.
Services offered include:
- Providing sound administrative and financial oversight and serving as your fiscal agent. If your organization, coalition or group does not have 501(c)(3) tax exempt status and/or is currently applying with the IRS, we can manage grants/donations on your behalf.*
- Helping to track and manage your contracts, grant financials, reporting requirements or deadlines and subcontracts.
- Processing accounts receivable and accounts payable managed in partnership.
- Providing services as required within the fiscal management partnership (i.e., subcontracts, financial reports to funders, etc.)
*Please note that new fiscal management projects are subject to HIPHI Board of Directors approval.
Examples of fiscal management projects we serve are:
- Filcom Cares, since November 2020.
- Hawaiʻi Children’s Trust Fund, since August 2019.
