Welcome Artsupport!
Absolutely. Your work faciliating new and better flow-through of philanthropy to all parts of the arts and cultural sector is admired. The Cultural Philanthropy Taskforce is looking at Australian models, as well as ideas in other national domains, in thinking through its strategies.
What might be of interest to this forum is a choice detail (please miss, a story) on how you do the match-making.
Are you also aware of the Funding Information Service and the Cultural Funding Guide they maintain on the Ministry of Culture and Heritages website.
http://www.mch.govt.nz/funding-guide/.
This searchable database contains grants, corporate philanthropy, scholarships and funding for Arts and Culture in NZ.
And with lots of information on what and why funders support certain projects, this database is extremely useful thanks Natasha, for reminding us to check it out, its free!
Also check out the resources page with advise on preparation for fundraising from trusts and foundations and making applications.
