Guide to Online Grantseeker Resources and Foundation Directory Online

Free

Learn to navigate and use the wide range of resources available through the foundation's databases, Foundation Directory Online and Philanthropy In/Sight, and on the Foundation Center's newest web site, GrantSpace.org.

This session provides an introduction to the Foundation Center's comprehensive online database, Foundation Directory Online Professional. Learn how to create customized searches to develop targeted lists of foundations that will match your organization's funding needs. We will spend time exploring Power Search, which allows you to search across nine Foundation Center databases ? grantmakers, grants, companies, 990s, news, jobs, RFPs, nonprofit literature, and PubHub reports.  You'll also be introduced to the Center's newest, map-based research tool, Philanthropy In/Sight.

This hands-on session will also introduce you to the resources available on the Foundation Center?s newest web site for grantseekers, GrantSpace.org.  GrantSpace, a service of the Foundation Center, offers information and resources that are specifically designed to meet the needs of grantseekers. You can explore content based on your subject area or a skill set you want to improve, as well as take advantage of our various tools to get answers to the most frequently asked questions, find sample documents, including proposals, and more.

This class will show you how to get the most out of the web site, to help you gain the knowledge and skills you need to get grants, manage your nonprofit, and improve your community.
