TRAININGS

Arbinger Leadership Institute for Nonprofits:

Organizational change starts with individuals. In fact, an organization will only change when the people who make up the organization change. The Arbinger Institute facilitates individual mindset change in people at all levels of an organization and provided the implementation and follow-up support needed to coordinate and sustain these shifts across a team or entire enterprise.

GRANT RESEARCH AND OPPORTUNITIES

Zada Haws Community Grant Center:

The Zada Haws Community Grant Center is the most authoritative source of information on private philanthropy in Northern Utah. Approximately 90% of domestic foundations don't have a website. The Zada Haws Community Grant Center offers access to these hard to find funders, along with the most effective tools to organize and manage your grant research. The Center also offers instruction on funding research, proposal writing, locating prospective funders, and news and philanthropy. The Center is open to grant seekers, grant makers, researchers, policymakers, the media, and the general public. Candid's Funding Information Network, through the Zada Haws Grant Center, provides nonprofits with resources like:

  • A listing of over 140,000 foundations, corporate giving programs, and grantmaking public charities in the U.S.
  • A database of over 4,000 sponsoring companies, offering a quick pathway to corporate funders
  • A database of over 5 million recently awarded grants
  • A keyword-searchable database of over 1 million recently filed IRS Forms 990 and 990-PF

Through the Grant Center, nonprofits can access these resources through:

By combining exhaustive data with intuitive search functionality and informative data visualizations, FDO makes fundraising quick and efficient.
