What other trends and changes have been noted in the past year with foundation and corporate giving?
The recent trend has been less corporate and foundation support for building projects (“bricks and mortar”). Private funders today often seek collaborations between nonprofits, and Baylor University encourages collaborations with other academic disciplines, with other groups in the Central Texas area, or with other institutes of higher learning. Foundations and corporations have become strategic in their giving, targeting funding where they will have the most impact. They are also interested in funding “leading-edge” research.
