Both receiving funds and submitting expenses are simple procedures. You will find the details on both of them on the respective pages of these docs. Feel free to share them with the contributors and the members of your collective.
Being fiscally hosted by OCE means accepting to be a part of a community of hundreds of initiatives who share the same instruments to manage their own independent projects. It requires a minimum of attention, but still some attention, to function properly.
Because of that, please familiarise yourself with the guidelines on donations and expenses and feel free to contact us if you have any questions or doubts on [email protected].
