How do I know HCB is legit?
If you or your parent/guardian is unsure about HCB, it might be helpful to check out our website (
hackclub.com/fiscal-sponsorship/) which shows our finances (HQ Club HQ section). Our website also highlights three other large organizations that are fiscally sponsored by HCB, raising thousands of dollars. You can click on each of these organizations to view their transparent HCB pages sharing about their funds.
In addition, we also have our non-profit directory of HCB fiscally sponsored organizations that are transparent. You can check out the non-profits on HCB here: https://hackclub.com/fiscal-sponsorship/directory/
At HCB, we want to make sure your funds are easily accessible and always safe. We're always ready to dispute fraudulent transactions on your behalf (for example, if your card gets stolen). In addition if anything happens to HCB, we would always ensure that your money goes back to your organization and would never disappear. All the banks we work with are FDIC insured. In addition, we only move your funds with your permission since your funds are fully managed by your team.
