Finding big donors
How large foundations look for donors
I don't know how much of this SIAI is already doing, but I thought it would be of interest to anyone who's building up an organization which needs donors. It's also interesting (at least to me-- I've spent my life in a very small business) for how much serious thought can be brought to a project.
One surprising fact: "A large not for profit did a study a few years ago which told them that most of the people who left a million dollars or more to them in their will, unasked-for, gave an average of $17 a year to them during their life."

Interesting stuff. I wasn't clear on what the "prospect research shop"'s business model was, though. I guess they simultaneously try to find donors for lots of different clients?
I wonder how much other nonprofit best practices type stuff SI could benefit from.
The article implies that usually large charities have their own prospect research shops. (I'd guess that small charities don't bother.)
