- W242002107 abstract "Reductions in government funding opportunities have prompted increasing attention to alternative sources of support. Private foundations have become increasingly important for providing funding for research, programs and services, equipment, and other projects or needs. The present column discusses: (a) sources of information on foundations, (b) descriptions of six foundations which fund mental health and health care projects, and (c) suggestions for communicating with funding sources. For additional information on foundations, see the last issue of this column (JCAP, 1987, 4, pp. 69-72). SOURCES OF INFORMATION ON FOUNDATIONS The best place to begin your search for appropriate foundations is to examine one of several funding agency directories. Comprehensive listings with brief descriptions of funding programs and types of assistance available can be found in several regularly updated publications. There are two types of reference sources: (a) indexes of foundation grants recently awarded, and (b) directories which describe the program interests of individual foundations. Most of these publications can be located in university and public libraries. The following are excellent sources of information: 1. The Foundation Directory. Compiled and published biannually by the Foundation Center (New York, NY), this directory describes over 4,000 foundations. The Tenth Edition was published in 1985, and the Eleventh Edition should be published this year. This is probably the most comprehensive and helpful directory. 2. The Foundation Index Annual This index lists over 34,000 grants of $5,000 or more awarded to nonprofit organizations by about 460 major U.S. foundations. The index is compiled and published annually by the Foundation Center (New York, NY). 3. Directory of Research Grants. This directory is compiled and published annually by Oryx Press (Phoenix, AZ), and describes over 4,000 foundation grant programs. 4. The American Psychological Association's Guide to Research Support. The American Psychological Association has compiled and published a helpful guide (Dusek, Holt, Burke, & Kraut, 1984), with an update-addendum (Burke, 1986) which was reviewed in a previous Grants and Extramural Funds column (JCAP, 1986, 3, pp. 242-244). The guide provides a variety of information, including comprehensive listings of federal and private foundation sources of support for psychological research. After locating potential funding sources, the next step is to contact the agency for more information on their interests and application procedures. A brief letter is usually enough to receive a packet of information from the agency, which often includes brochures describing the agency, the agency's annual report, information on the types of support available, program interests and goals, and application procedures. When an agency appears to be a potential source of funds, personal contact with agency personnel may be helpful.
