Supplemental Narrative
Additional Explanations
Form 990, Part III, Line 2
“Folklight Film Club is the fiscal sponsor for a documentary series and educational materials that aim to understand Paleolithic cave art - the signs left by the first people - in order to better understand our shared ancestral heritage and strengthen humanity's sense of kinship in a global community. This series and educational materials will be made available to the public free of charge via the global distribution of the series, distribution of educational materials via our education partners (including TED-Ed), and an online hub for all outputs (series and educational materials) related to this program. We received grant funds of $2,500,000 on behalf of this project, which was produced by an established film and TV production company under Folklight's oversight and with our administrative support, in the manner that is standard for documentary film fiscal sponsorships. This program is estimated to be completed with measurable outcomes in or around 2027. We received in-kind sponsorship for this program from Land Rover (the donated use of their vehicles) and Aputure (the donated use of their specialized lighting equipment). This fiscal sponsorship was Folklight's first program after the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic had halted all previous programs.”

| IRS990ScheduleI/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt | 0 | The grant of $2,500,000 was awarded to Folklight Film Club by the John Templeton Foundation and distributed by Folklight Film Club to Practical Magic in fulfillment of Folklight Film Club's role as 501(c)(3) fiscal sponsor of Practical Magic, specifically for the production of a documentary series and educational materials that aim to understand Paleolithic cave art - the signs left by the first people - in order to better understand our shared ancestral heritage and story. Folklight collborated with Practical Magic in creating the project budget to ensure it was in compliance with 501(c)(3) rules/regulations/guidelines and applicable industry standards. As is in the fiscal sponsorship agreement between Folklight Film Club and Practical Magic, Practical Magic submitted required quarterly progress and financial update reports to Folklight to ensure that the project was on schedule and on approved budget. Additionally, Folklight had in-real-time view into the expenses, accounting, and financial reporting for the project via project management apps and budgeting software that Folklight shared the use of with Practical Magic. |

| IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt | 0 | Folklight Film Club is the fiscal sponsor for a documentary series and educational materials that aim to understand Paleolithic cave art - the signs left by the first people - in order to better understand our shared ancestral heritage and strengthen humanity's sense of kinship in a global community. This series and educational materials will be made available to the public free of charge via the global distribution of the series, distribution of educational materials via our education partners (including TED-Ed), and an online hub for all outputs (series and educational materials) related to this program. We received grant funds of $2,500,000 on behalf of this project, which was produced by an established film and TV production company under Folklight's oversight and with our administrative support, in the manner that is standard for documentary film fiscal sponsorships. This program is estimated to be completed with measurable outcomes in or around 2027. We received in-kind sponsorship for this program from Land Rover (the donated use of their vehicles) and Aputure (the donated use of their specialized lighting equipment). This fiscal sponsorship was Folklight's first program after the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic had halted all previous programs. |

| ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt | 0 | Folklight's single source of funding for 2022 and 2023 was terminated in March 2023. Funds to pay for all Folklight filing fees due May 2022 would have come from the grant payment due to be received at the end of March 2023, as such that payment was not issued nor received. All employees were laid off once the grant was terminated. Since this single source of funding for our single program in 2023 was Folklight's first program after the COVID-19 pandemic, which halted all previous programs and fundraising activities, the organization had no funds to file in a timely fashion, nor to hire staff or services to file. |
