About the Foundation Center
The Foundation Center was started
over 1956. We are based in New York
City, and we have field offices in Atlanta, Cleveland,
San Francisco, and Washington, D.C. Each of our offices
has a library and training center, where people can
come and learn about foundations and how to apply
for grants. We also work with libraries around
the country, where we make books and other materials
available to the public for free.
Most people who visit the Foundation
Center and its Web site come from a nonprofit organization
and they’re looking for information about foundations
that might want to support their work. Other people
who visit our Web site and our libraries include:
·
Individuals, such as artists who are looking
for funding to support their own projects
·
Students who need financial assistance
·
People looking for jobs at nonprofit organizations
·
Researchers interested in foundations and corporate
giving
The Foundation
Center’s database includes information on foundations, corporate giving programs, and grantmaking public charities. We use our database to publish
books and CD-ROMs about foundations and to do
research on who foundations are giving their
money to. We also offer training programs and
online access to our data through services like
Foundation
Finder, and the Foundation
Directory Online.
