Next week TechSoup will have a one day offering of GrantStation for $90 each. Has anyone in the non-profit railroad and/or historic preservation field succesfully used GrantStation to seek applicable grantmakers? Here is its description:
Quote:
GrantStation membership includes instant access to a searchable
database of thousands of pre-screened foundation and corporate
grantmakers that are actively accepting proposals from
nonprofits. This database provides you with more than 160 areas
of interest to help narrow your search and keep your research
time to a minimum. GrantStation also lists the latest federal
grant announcements as well as access to state agencies offering
grants in all 50 states. In addition, GrantStation offers a
section dedicated to international grantmakers to help you find
grantmakers based in other countries.

Here is TechSoup's link to the offer: http://ga0.org/ct/W7LiB4K1smFA/

Besides GrantStation, what resources do you recommend to find grantmakers in our fields of interest?

If how slow the Techsoup web site was this morning is any indication, GrantStation @ $90 must be selling like gangbusters. I've ordered a copy, but I have no previous experience with grantmaker seeking tools like this. If it turns out to be a treasure trove of grant sources, I'll let you know. At this price its hard to go wrong.

I also signed up this morning and noticed how slow it was. My feeling is it will let us find opportunities we otherwise would not know about - now all we have to do is win one!
