World Bank Foundations Info Center

Foundations Info Center:

The Foundations Information Center has been designed to help World Bank staff take a first step in finding foundations engaged in projects that might complement the Bank's work. Several resources are provided ranging from a list of the largest US Private foundations that fund international programs to a list of international foundations with offices in Bank client countries. The Center is on the Bank's website, and is a resource for the public as well as Bank staff.

There are also direct links to foundation search engines where you can tailor your search by sector or geographic area. In addition, we have listed foundations that fund projects in certain regions (e.g. Africa funders) or by specific topics (e.g. HIV/AIDS funders). These lists have been abstracted from resources published by the Council on Foundations, European Foundation Centre, and similar sources. We will be expanding the coverage of regions and topics when new or additional data become available."
