funding for the Medical Center's research, programs and educational initiatives. In collaboration with VUMC leadership and faculty, we seek and secure charitable support that ensures a mutually beneficial relationship with our foundation partners.</p> <p class="MsoNormal text-align-center"><o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal">Our expertise in approaching, connecting and convening with private foundations and public charities includes:</p> <ul> <li>Identifying and cultivating relationships with prospective foundation funders</li> <li>Assisting in proposal development and partnering on the grant submission process</li> <li>Strengthening the foundation partnership before, during and after the grant period</li> </ul> <p> </p> <h3><strong>GETTING STARTED</strong></h3> <p>Foundation funding is unique - the process is quite different from competing for federal grants and from seeking support from other charitable sources like grateful patient fundraising or major philanthropic donors. </p> <p><strong>Searching for foundation funding opportunities</strong><br> We have a few different resources that you can utilize to help identify potential funders. One of the best ways to search for funding is part of Candid鈥檚 <a href="https://fconline-foundationcenter-org.proxy.library.vanderbilt.edu/search/">Foundation Directory Online</a>. You can also search Request For Proposals as part of Candid鈥檚 Philanthropy News Digest among other VUMC publications.</p> <p><strong>Partnering with the Foundation Relations team</strong><br> As soon as you identify a foundation that might be a potential funder, call or email our team for advice. We may have an existing relationship with the foundation staff and can offer background information, advice on how to approach the funder, and guidance for a smooth and successful submission.</p> <p>
