| How
the collection started
The
Nonprofit & Funding Resource Collection (NFRC) provides a comprehensive
collection of materials which assist nonprofit organizations in
diversifying their funding bases, and in training their staff to
become more skilled in fund development and nonprofit management.
The NFRC collection, originally funded by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation,
was donated to Willard Library by the Battle Creek Community Foundation
in 1995.
What
makes us special
The
Nonprofit & Funding Resource Collection is one of only two nonprofit
research libraries in Southwest Michigan selected as a Cooperating
Collection of the Foundation Center of New York. The collection
features the latest research on private foundations and corporations.
The Collection provides information and resources to help nonprofit
organizations enhance their leadership and administrative capacities,
and provides funding research that assist grantseekers in identifying
appropriate funders and developing targeted proposals.
Most
materials are available for check out by Willard Library cardholders.
Special lending arrangements can be made for individuals living
outside the library district boundaries. Assistance is provided
by Willard reference staff during regular library hours. Intensive
assistance is available to members
of the NonProfit Alliance.
