The Ausherman Family Foundation partners with the Grant Seekers Resource Center at the Frederick County C. Burr Artz Public Library to bring reference and circulating materials to nonprofit staff, board members, fundraisers, and the general public. One of the top benefits of utilizing the center is the opportunity to find new funders!

Grant seekers have the access to search the most comprehensive electronic collections of grantmakers and grants available through Foundation Center databases as well as print resources. Subjects in the Grant Resource Center’s collection include philanthropy, nonprofit management and board development, grant seeking, fundraising and proposal writing. The database allows users to find funders for nonprofit organizations, news from the philanthropic sector, requests for proposals, job postings, and content from social media and trusted publications.

Although the library is closed, curbside pickup and online databases are still available!

For additional information please contact Amy Moser at the C. Burr Artz Public Library either via email, vog.DMytnuoCkcirederF@resoMA, or by phone 301.600.3773.
