Library to Offer Workshop on the Foundation Directory Online

By Rhiannon Eades

The Athens-Clarke County Library will host a free, hands-on workshop about Foundation Directory Online, a web-based subscription database for grant seekers at 6:00 p.m. on Monday, July 29.

Foundation Directory Online is the Foundation Center’s online database that details more than 8,500 foundations and sources of funding for non-profit organizations and grant-funded projects. The database is now available at the Athens-Clarke County Library.

 “There are so many groups in our area who need funding to complete their projects and serve their communities,” said Athens-Clarke County Library Director Kathryn Ames. “Researching available grants can be a frustrating and time-consuming process. The Foundation Directory Online streamlines that process, and we are very pleased that we can offer this amazing resource at no cost to these groups.”
