About this Event

Whether you are a researcher or nonprofit organization, acquiring funding is hard work. To maximize your efforts, it is crucial to identify and approach the appropriate potential funders.

During this workshop, you’ll become more familiar with what criteria to consider when identifying potential funders and learn how to successfully search specialized databases to locate those funders. Once you’ve identified potential funders in these databases, you can study them more carefully by looking at their websites, publications, newspaper articles and tax returns.

The workshop will focus on three Library databases—Foundation Directory Online, Foundation Grants to Individuals Online and COS Pivot. It is co-sponsored by the UD Research Office and Development Office.

Undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, and staff are welcome to attend. While workshops are free of charge, registration is required as seating is limited.

All Morris Library visitors need photo identification to enter. Visitors with UD ONEcards can use those at the turnstiles for easy access to the Library. If you do not have a UD ONEcard, you will need a state-issued ID (a driver’s license, a government-issued or school-issued photo ID, etc.) to enter.
