The Exchange of Ives Squared has many resources and programs catered to nonprofits, specifically focusing on local change-makers in the New Haven area. We strive to offer our patrons the help they need to build connections and access funding opportunities for their nonprofit organizations, learn how to write grants, and get them the information and resources necessary to accomplish the amazing work they do to help our community.
Digital Toolbox Resources For Nonprofits
The nonprofit-focused databases we have for free with your library card, some on-site and some with remote-use options, can help you in numerous ways. For example, they include the powerful Foundation (FDO) from Canvid, Grantwatch, iProWave, and more!
Check out our three featured nonprofit resources for this month, all a part of the Digital Toolbox offered by NHFPL through Ives Squared -- they are Foundation Directory Online, Grantwatch, and Mergent Intellect. To see the rest of our Digital Toolbox database offerings just click below!

Testimonials
“The library tremendously improved our ability to fundraise and grow our business' customer base. It also enables us to utilize machines that would otherwise be expensive to purchase, to create art and products to be sold.”

"Librarians have helped me with a whole host of tasks, like printing posters, hosting focus groups, conducting outreach to patrons, and introducing me to dozens of thought leaders in New Haven. I feel so supported, loved, and protected by the staff at Ives Squared."
