Learn to navigate and use the wide range of resources made available by the Foundation Center. The Stephentown Memorial Library will host a free workshop for nonprofit organizations that will introduce you to the resources made available by the Foundation Center – Grantspace, Foundation Directory Online and Foundation Maps. The workshop will be held Monday, November 10, from 11:30 am to 1 pm.
The session will be led by Julieta Mendez, Engagement & Outreach Specialist, Social Sector Outreach with the Foundation Center (http://foundationcenter.org). This class will show you how to get the most out of the Foundation Center’s online resources to help you gain the knowledge and skills you need to get grants, manage your nonprofit and improve your community. Mendez will offer tips on how best to identify funding sources for your organization, highlighting the electronic and print resources available for your free use at the Stephentown Memorial Library, a Funding Information Network partner of the Foundation Center.
The workshop will include a demonstration of Foundation Directory Online, the Foundation Center’s top tier searchable database providing information on nearly 100,000 grant makers and more than 2 million grant records and will provide an overview of the free resources on the Foundation Center’s web site.
A light lunch will be served, and there will be ample time for individual questions. There is limited seating so reservations required. Please call the Stephentown Memorial Library at 518-733-5750 or email director@stephentownlibrary.org to reserve a space.
