We strive to be a credible source of information for philanthropy in our state. We hope you find the following resources helpful. Please contact us if the ICoF can help answer specific questions related to philanthropy.
Grantseekers
While the ICoF is able to provide limited resources to Iowa nonprofit organizations as an extension of our services for grantmakers, our focus is primarily on supporting and educating the funders themselves. As such, we do not make grants. We encourage grantseekers to learn more about potential funding by using:
ICoF Member Directory
Iowa Grants Guide
Candid (Foundation Center and GuideStar are now Candid)
Foundation Search
Iowa Grants Enterprise Management Systems
United Ways of Iowa
