Grant Research Tools

There are several grant research tools with different strengths. To help nonprofits navigate the confusing world of grant research databases, we explored some of the available tools.

Voting and Community Engagement

Research proves that when charitable nonprofits encourage people, in a nonpartisan way, to vote by registering to vote and getting out to vote, people vote at significantly higher levels.

Ethical Leadership for Nonprofits

Nonprofit leaders have a special obligation to demonstrate their commitment to values such as accountability, compassion, honesty, service to others, transparency, and respect.

Board Orientation

Be sure to include the basics needed for new board members to become engaged in the work of the board right away, and to serve as committed ambassadors and advocates for your nonprofit’s mission.

Whistleblower Protections for Nonprofits

Federal law prohibits all corporations, including nonprofits, from retaliating against employees who “blow the whistle” on their employer’s financial management or accounting practices.
