Marquette University’s Raynor Memorial Libraries’ Funding Information Center has published the 2009 Foundations in Wisconsin directory. The online and print directory provides information on 1,286 private, corporate and community foundations in the state and documents almost $508 million in total grants paid in the last year – a 7 percent increase. Both forms of the directory are available for purchase online here.
The online directory, with its custom-designed search engine, is a helpful tool for identifying potential Wisconsin funding sources. Foundations in Wisconsin profiles include street and Web addresses, telephone/fax numbers, contact person, officers and directors, donors, financial information, purpose statement, application information, geographic focus, sample grants, and grant-making interests.
