Hi everyone,
Is anyone involved in prospect research / fundraising from U.S foundations? We're 501(c)3 registered in the U.S, but conduct our fundraising from the U.K. We have relationships with a few foundations already, and are now trying to really step up our work over there so will be doing a lot of research over the coming months.
I'd love to talk to anyone who is doing something similar (or has done in the past) to learn about your experiences of U.S research and foundation fundraising from afar, the best approaches, tailoring to the U.S market, networks etc.
I know that this forum is European focused, but I hope that some of you might be looking at the U.S as well - or perhaps someone else in your organisation is?
I'd be delighted to hear from anyone whose brains I might be able to pick!
Cheers,
Victoria
