Survival Tip #1: Protect your funds.

Indirect Costs: Knowledge is Power

Many grant managers do not calculate the indirect costs of their federally funded grant programs. So, it may come as a surprise that, on average, 30-40% of total program costs are actually indirect (think IT support, HR, Payroll). As a result, these programs are, ultimately, subsidized by the General Fund. This likely negatively impacts the organization and limits the long-term viability of your programs.

Join us for this webinar where we will break down the common misconceptions around indirect costs and share the necessary steps to recover those costs. You’ll discover how to achieve better fiscal health by maximizing federal funding through Indirect Cost Recovery.

In this webinar, learn how to:

  • Understand the true costs associated with federally funded programs
  • Know the power of your indirect cost
  • Sustain your ARPA and grant-funded programs for the long term
  • Inject your General Fund with unrealized revenue

You'll walk away with:

Our Indirect Costs Explainer to help guide you through the steps necessary to implement an indirect cost rate for your organization.
