  I research target prospects, from Trusts and Foundations to Major Donors, for approach and subsequently prioritize these prospects and determine avenues for approach. I also build relationships with new funders and develop relationships with existing and previous funders. I use tools like Salesforce to maintain clear records of approaches, rejections, successes, and grant reporting requirements. Finally, I assist in writing bids to potential funders.
