In Focus: Trusts Research on a Shoestring
March 28, 2015 @ 9:45 am - 1:00 pm
Identifying potential and appropriate trusts and foundations can be a challenge even for experienced fundraisers; it can be downright daunting for those new to the trusts sector or when the support of a prospect researcher just isn’t an option.
This session will provide you not just with the essentials of trusts and foundations research, but some practical tips and strategies on where to start and what to look for, especially if you don’t have access to industry-standard, but often expensive, resources and subscriptions.
For those with the experience, the usual suspects (directories) and the subscriptions, we may just have a few new tricks to put a shine on your prospects lists or confirm that you’re already on the right track.
The session is being delivered by Pam Judson and Deanna Wolf.
