Review for Fractured Atlas, New York, NY, USA
Fractured Atlas is not a good charity. It is simply a venue that collects monthly fees for its staff and then denies the very service it suggest fiscal sponsorship. We are group of blind individuals who paid a $95 membership fee and requested fiscal sponsor ship for culinary arts program for the blind. They refused and we feel they said they do not think blind culinary arts is a good program. We feel they have discriminated against us and that they should be shut down from fiscal sponsorship as they are not a true charitable cause. We did not ask them for money, just the oposit they ask people to pay monthly memebership fees and then do not serve the members needs for fiscal sponsorship.

Hi Cynthia, I'm sorry that your project was not a good fit for the Fractured Atlas fiscal sponsorship program. As stated on our website, we will refund your dues if you are not happy with the membership. Your card has been refunded the full amount of the membership. Your project is incredibly worthwhile and I'm sure there is a sponsor out there that is a good fit for the work. I suggest checking out: www.fiscalsponsordirectory.org If you are interested in finding out the results of our research into the charitability of the culinary arts, I'll be happy to share that with you once we hear back from our legal council. Best, Dianne Debicella Fractured Atlas, Program Director, Fiscal Sponsorship
