The Foundation Center 's mission is to strengthen the nonprofit sector by advancing knowledge about U.S. philanthropy.
It sponsors Cooperating Collections which are free funding information centers in libraries, community foundations, and other nonprofit resource centers that provide a core collection of Foundation Center publications and a variety of supplementary materials and services in areas useful to grantseekers.
A key initiative of the Foundation Center is to reach under-resourced and underserved populations throughout the United States and in Mexico, who are in need of useful information and training to become successful grantseekers. One of the ways we intend to accomplish this goal is by designating new Cooperating Collection libraries in regions that have the ability to serve the nonprofit communities most in need of Foundation Center resources. We are seeking proposals from qualified institutions (i.e. public, academic or special libraries) that can help us carry out this important initiative.
