There are over 150,000 grant making Foundations in the USA that support all types of not for profit organisations world-wide. These range from small charities working locally to large NGOs working nationally and internationally. Over the past 20 years, these Foundations have donated over £650 million to over 800 small, medium and large charities in the UK.
I use these databases to find prospects that support charities in the UK:
