Is this one in your prospecting tool box?
Cause IQ has a load of 🌟 FREE information on grant makers.
As a business, Cause IQ is an impressive data stack built for consultants, accountants, and IT firms to find and market to nonprofits. It’s subscription-based BUT founder Josh Hurd and his team have not skimped on the
freemiums. You get much more than you would from just the 990, and its way more accessible.
Here’s some of what’s in a search with a free account:
🔹 First, when logged in, you get a Dashboard with a search box.
🔹Type in the name of a funder, or, keywords, like “Minnesota Foundations” – that gives you a list of 2,880 organizations, each with a profile.
🔹Under “Advanced Search” you see how many are Private foundations, Corporate foundations, etc.
🔹Filter on any of these Types, and/or Revenue, and/or City.
🔹 A Cause IQ profile shows Program areas, Funding, Grantmaking, Financials, and Personnel. With the free account, it’s mostly 990 data but MUCH easier to read than the tax form.
🔹You can save the Search, to return to over time.
🔹The Grantmaking tab offers more: Graphs comparing issues that received funding, the number grants made in what states, the NTEEs, and more.
💠 Graphs likes these are behind paywalls on other search sites.💠
Another pleasant discovery, the Dashboard remembers recent searches, viewed profiles, and lists updates on them.
