Although foundations don’t typically offer the same level of funding as federal agencies, their dollars can serve as a valuable complement to other funding streams and help spur additional funding. While no two foundations are exactly the same, there are some generic guidelines that are helpful in seeking foundation funding. This workshop, part 3 of the “How Not to Research Alone: Creating Meaningful Relationships with Funders” series, will focus on what resonates with foundations and strategies for effective approaches.
