About Video

The nation’s nearly 100,000 private foundations distribute billions of dollars to nonprofit organizations each year – 15% of all charitable donations come from family and independent foundations. In this 5-minute money maker presentation, the Michigan Nonprofit Fundraising Center (NFC) unveils an action plan that organizations can use to attract funding from mega-institutions like the Gates Foundation to thousands of smaller family-controlled trusts and foundations. Calling on their years of experience with funders and nonprofits, Curt Weeden and Tanya Smith-Evans co-host this important Michigan NFC production.
