Foundation Center Cooperating Collection

Need funding for a worthwhile project? The Foundation Center Cooperating Collection offers up-to-date facts on foundations, corporate giving and government funding.

The John F. Germany Public Library's collection is one of only nine in Florida affiliated with the Foundation Center in New York City, a non-profit organization established in 1956 as an authoritative source of information on private and corporate philanthropy. The collection includes the Foundation Center's core publications, as well as a wide variety of resources on foundations and grant makers, non-profit management and fund-raising in print, electronic and microfiche formats.
