When nonprofits and development professionals are searching for the funders and grants that match an organization, it is important to not just look at the number of opportunities in each database, but the ones that you have the best chance of receiving funding. Since the Colorado Grants Guide focuses on funders that are most likely to fund a Colorado nonprofit, the Colorado Grants Guide is the most targeted tool for Colorado fundraising. For most Colorado nonprofits, the Guide will uncover more realistic prospects per hour of research than other national databases. Here is a comparison of features and pricing of each of the leading grant databases:
