All About Foundation Funding

Mississippi State's Office of Research and Economic Development is hosting a virtual seminar.

All About Foundation Funding  
April 27
2-3:30 p.m.  

Seminar Description: Corporate and philanthropic organizations provide levels of funding for research, development and services at a rate on par with the federal  government. Unlike the usually streamlined application processes for federal opportunities, foundations often have requirements and processes as unique and specific as their missions, which presents a learning curve for applicants who are new to seeking foundation funds. This seminar will feature several different sources of and methods for discovering "foundation" funding across multiple sectors, as well as share some best practices for preparing applications to these organizations. Participants also will receive information about resources available from the MSU Foundation and MSU's offices of Sponsored Projects and Research Development to help develop and submit a competitive proposal to these organizations.

Presenters: Stephanie Hyche, director, Office of Research Development; Alex McIntosh, director of corporate and foundation relations, MSU Foundation
