| FUNDING SOURCES:
The greatest ideas become reality only with the proper, and necessary,
influx of funds to implement the plans. Apart from seeking funding
it is equally important to determine the type of funds to request,
the source to which you make the request, meeting the criteria of
the funding organization and the business structure that you set for
yourself.
The major categories of funders will fall into the following:
Government: Federal, State and local
Foundations: private and corporate
Corporations: Public, Private and non-profit
Charities: Private individuals or affinity groups
Your initial search should focus on your own business objectives,
corporate structure and how they might match with the stakes that
each of the above sectors hold within your service region as well
as with the objectives/parameters of each funding group.
Some good places to start are:
The Foundation Center
Guidestar
Charity Advantage
The Chronicle of Philanthropy
Federal Government Grant Opportunities
