CFR also provides profiles on particular foundations and corporations and offers grant-writing assistance, training and other resources.

Contact them to:

  • Find funding for a particular project, wish to know more about a particular foundation or corporation, or would like to receive funding alerts when new grant opportunities arise
  • Submit a proposal to one of our corporate or foundation partners
  • Use our Proposal Writing Toolkit for a step-by-step guide on how to write a proposal
  • Request help writing a letter of inquiry or proposal to a foundation or corporation, or would like an experienced grant writer to provide feedback on your draft
  • Schedule one-on-one training on how to use COS Pivot, a comprehensive funding database with searchable government and private grant opportunities. Contact us for help getting the most out of this database and set up your profile.

When to contact: If you’re interested in finding funding opportunities of all kinds via setting up a Pivot account, or if you’re interested in having the office staff search for possible matches with foundation and corporate and individual donors; the office can also help with proposal development.
