Access Philanthropy is a hands-on research institute focused on the giving preferences of foundations and corporate donors. We work with for-profit and non-profit organizations who want to make better use of their limited research, marketing, and grantseeking budgets.

The key ways that Access Philanthropy can improve your organization's philanthropic appeal:

Our funder databases give you quick, easy and cost-effective information you need to select great new funding prospects. More than 100 sure-fire lists in every state and on every topic you’ll need – arts, health, education, international, environment, children, human services, special populations—the list goes on...

Our consulting and research uncovers where our clients REALLY stand in the local and national grantmaking communities and provides both grantseeking prospects and positioning advice. We get our clients’ proposal systems up and running (or back on track). When necessary, we also provide grant-writing and proposal production assistance. Download our Five Star Fundamentals brochure

Our workshops are highly provocative, highly interactive and always informative briefings and skill-building seminars. Our most popular topics are "Top 100 National Funders" (in your state), “Patterns and Profiles of Corporate Funders," and "Developing Your Organization's 30 Second Elevator Speech." We partner with local and regional organizations around the country to present the workshops. Current topics

Access Philanthropy is the point at which an organization's vision, programs, leadership, and fund raising come together. We provide the strategic fund raising that integrates the real world of your current organization with the place where you want to be and where you know you should be to accomplish your organization's vision and mission.
