Foundation Directory Online:
A highly sought-after development tool is now available to all nonprofit organizations free of charge, thanks to a collaborative effort between LANO, the Organizational Effectiveness Initiative at the Greater New Orleans Foundation, the Arts Council of New Orleans and Regions Morgan Keegan Trust.
Foundation Directory Online provides current, accurate, and comprehensive information on U.S. grantmakers and their grants, drawn from reliable sources, including IRS Form 990s; grantmaker web sites and annual reports; and the grantmakers themselves. The searchable database allows users to select key words to identify the grantmakers that are the best match with their organization and project.
This service is being offered at all LANO locations, on Monday through Thursday, 9:00 am to 3:30 pm. LANO staff is available to provide technical assistance on an appointment basis.
