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

National Institute for Criminal Justice Reform (NICJR) is interested in learning more about corporate funders supporting national criminal justice reform and violence prevention efforts. NICJR is particularly interested in learning about corporate funders supporting policy, advocacy, research, and technical assistance.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a template for gathering research on private foundations, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have names of corporate funders we'd like to learn more about, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $5,239 , allowing us to identify and build relationships with corporate funders whose grant making priorities align with our work

NICJR is focusing on growing and diversifying its revenue sources to improve sustainability and grow its services.
