Navigating the complex world of grant seeking can feel overwhelming for nonprofits. That’s why we kicked off our Mastering Grant Seeking in 2025 webinar series with a focused session on Identifying the Right-Fit Funders & Building Targeted Prospecting Lists. Here’s what you missed and how you can leverage the tools we discussed to streamline your grant-seeking process.
Key Takeaways from the Webinar
1. What Defines a Right-Fit Funder?
A right-fit funder aligns with your nonprofit’s mission, has the financial capacity to support your goals, and offers an accessible connection to build a strong relationship. During the session, we emphasized how nonprofits can:
- Identify funders in their ecosystem (by cause area, geography, and more).
- Look for funders supporting peer organizations with similar missions.
- Evaluate funder history using Impala’s free grantmaker profiles for insights into funding priorities and historical grants given.

Creating a data-driven and focused prospecting list saves time and improves outcomes. The session covered:
- Using Impala’s intelligent prospect list feature to evaluate funders based on alignment, capacity, and relationships.
