FOUNDATION CENTER

The Foundation Center's mission is to strengthen the nonprofit
sector by advancing knowledge about U.S. philanthropy.
Established in 1956, and today supported by more than 600
foundations, the Foundation Center is the nation's leading
authority on philanthropy, connecting nonprofits and the
grantmakers supporting them to tools they can use and
information they can trust. The Center maintains the most
comprehensive database on U.S. grantmakers and their grants — a
robust, accessible knowledge bank for the sector. It also
operates research, education, and training programs designed to
advance philanthropy at every level. The Center's web site
receives more than 47,000 visits each day, and thousands of
people gain access to free resources in its five regional
library/learning centers and its national network of more than
340 Cooperating Collections.
