fiscal sponsor
It would be great if sponsored entities (i.e., non-501c3s who use a fiscal sponsor) were able to login, create their own account, and then connect to their 501c3 fiscal sponsor's account. The fiscal sponsor would still have to sign off on any application submitted.

I would LOVE to see this, and I view the ability to better serve fiscally sponsored entities as one directly related to questions of equity. We make a lot of small grants to fiscally-sponsored orgs/projects, and the number of clarifying questions/login issues/problems with duplicate EINs when a project is trying to apply after another project eats up a lot of my (and their!) time for what should be a super simple grant application. I'd love to see Foundant thinking through ways GLM could better support fiscally sponsored grantseekers in general; while there are tweaks and adjustments I can make in individual processes, a lot of these issues tie back to organizational- and/or user-level data.

This would be super helpful! As that would (ideally) allow us to also assign grant agreements in the "Follow Up" to the fiscal sponsor.
