Prospect Research

Project details

What we need
  • Research into ideal funder profile(s) and list of sources
  • Development of a list of prospects (up to 15) that fit that ideal funder profile, including contact information when applicable and list of sources
  • Recommendations on areas for further exploration/research
Additional details

Looking for companies and corporations who have an interest in women's health and giving back within our community.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a committed staff partner and a great mission to fund, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a successful event within our community for over 10 yrs, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,494 , allowing us to provide nearly 100 free rides for cancer patients to go to and from their cancer treatment.

Prospect research will help our event be able to impact more lives and provide much needed funding for the American Cancer Society's mission to save lives, celebrate lives, and lead the fight for a world without cancer.

Our mission

The American Cancer Society’s mission is to save lives, celebrate lives, and lead the fight for a world without cancer.

What we do

The American Cancer Society is a nationwide, community-based voluntary health organization dedicated to eliminating cancer as a major health problem. Our Global Headquarters are located in Atlanta, Georgia, and we have regional and local offices throughout the country to ensure we have a presence in every community.

While most people know us for our research, we do so much more. We attack cancer from every angle. We promote healthy lifestyles to help you prevent cancer. We research cancer and its causes to find more answers and better treatments. We fight for lifesaving policy changes. We provide everything from emotional support to the latest cancer information for those who have been touched by cancer. And we do it all 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
