HCB-specific branding guidelines

How to talk about our fiscal hosting status, among other things

As one of the fiscally hosted organizations by Hack Club, we have HCB-specific branding guidelines on how to properly mention our fiscal sponsorship status to anyone, not just prospective sponsors and donors but for legal purposes.

For the official guidance on how to use HCB brand assets alongside our own HCB badges through Community Lorebooks' Badges API service (or the official ones) from the HCB team, visit hcb.hackclub.com/branding. When in doubt, don't hesitate to reach out to Andrei Jiroh the HCB team for clarification and assistance.

Stating fiscal sponsorship status

On using "fiscal host" vs "fiscal sponsor"

Using proof of fiscal sponsorship documents

When we say "proof of fiscal sponsorship", we mean the fiscal sponsorship agreement itself between us as the organization (and the projects under it) and the HCB team, alongside the IRS determination letter, confirmation letter, and bank account verification letters.
