DESCRIPTION:Looking for grants for your nonprofit? Join us to learn how to 
 maximize your use of Foundation Directory\, the most comprehensive prospect

 working on causes and with communities similar to those you serve. This 
 session will be useful for both new and seasoned users of the Foundation 
 Directory. In this session you will also learn how updating your 
 nonprofit’s Candid profile on GuideStar will grow your organization’s
