Negotiating and then securing outside funding is a major milestone for your organization. To get this far, you have put in the work to prove your concept and the value that your team brings. At MK Law and Consulting, we help organizations understand their responsibilities and obligations contained in their external funding agreements. We also help our clients negotiate these agreements so that outside funding does not come between you and your mission.
Protecting Your Interests During the Process
Many organizations assume they have to sign the funding agreement as is. In reality, you have room to negotiate terms that don’t align with your operations and programs. You must ensure the rules laid out in the contract are manageable for your team. Sometimes these agreements carry complex tax implications or impose strict employment law requirements. Looking at the big picture helps you avoid surprises down the road. Taking the time to understand every provision ensures you do not accidentally compromise your autonomy or operational flexibility.
