Project details
What we need
- A compilation of research on a specific topic (e.g. industry best practices, literature review, media contacts, industry trends, etc.) including a list of sources
- Recommendations on areas for further exploration/research
- Note: This project is not designed to be used for prospect or grant research
Additional details
A list of qualified funders whose missions align with our organization and that we can submit letters of inquiry and/or proposals to support our projects.
What we have in place
- We currently have a membership with the Foundation Directory Online, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have our own list of funders that need to be vetted, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $5,239 , allowing us to spend time on writing proposals to potential funders.
In the last 13 years, Powering Potential Inc (PPI) has provided solar panels and computer systems to over 29 rural schools in Tanzania. Most schools need these systems to be upgraded and expanded to serve hundreds of students in attendance. Access to technology provides students with continuing education and employment opportunities in the field of technology. This project will help us to raise the funds needed to upgrade and expand the solar and computer systems in well-performing schools.
