Join us to celebrate #GrantConnect60!
Grant Connect turns 60 this year. Six decades of helping the people behind Canadian nonprofits find the funding to power their missions!
Built by Imagine Canada, it began its journey back in 1966 as The Canadian Directory to Foundations and Granting Agencies, a trusted physical guide to Canada’s funding landscape for prospect researchers. It has since evolved into a comprehensive digital fundraising platform that supports prospect researchers like you.
Every size, every cause, every province and territory: nonprofits across Canada count on Grant Connect to fund their work. And it pays off! In our recent subscriber survey, users reported securing an estimated $119M+ using Grant Connect. That's real money, doing real work, in communities across the country.
Come celebrate this major milestone in person with our team, fellow fundraisers, and champions of the nonprofit sector as we look ahead to #FundTheFuture together.
Join us on Tuesday, October 21, 5:30-8:30 p.m. at the Novatel Toronto Centre, right after the APRA Canada conference (same venue)! In fact, it’s APRA’s 25th anniversary, and the Grant Connect team will be at the conference too. This celebration is about recognizing work of prospect researchers like you who make a meaningful impact in our sector.
