Types of Grantmakers

The world of philanthropy is filled with different types of grantmakers, each with their own requirements and their own styles of giving.

Understanding the type of grantmaker you are working with helps you know how to engage them, how to apply for opportunities, and how to manage awards. The giving profiles in the GrantStation database always indicate the type of grantmaker for this reason.
