Prospecting software from tech soup
If you haven’t subscribed to the weekly “By The Cup” email notice from the great folks at Tech Soup, you should. They arrive just about weekly, and feature tips, tricks, notices about software donations and more.
They recently highlighted a new offering in their Tech Soup Stock tool kit - Noza, a tool that allows for searching 30 million donation records. It appears to be priced well, too. Here’s a link, and the blurb from Tech Soup:
Description: NOZA is a Web-based database of charitable giving intended as a prospect-research tool for nonprofit organizations. The database includes listings for individual and company donations as well as charitable foundations. Users can research prospective or existing contributors by searching the database by donor, or they can search by cause, region, or gift amount to find the donors most likely to support their organization or project.
The information in the NOZA database is collected from publicly-available Internet sources including organizations’ newsletters, financial reports, and more. All of this information is freely available on the Internet or was available when it was gathered. If the content is still available, NOZA provides links to the Web pages where the information was found, allowing users to learn more about the context of a donation before contacting a potential donor.
Note: I haven’t used these tools yet - just passing along the tip!
