Prospect research is a technique used by development teams to learn more about the personal backgrounds, giving histories, wealth indicators, and philanthropic motivations of potential donors.

  • Assess indicators, trends, and traits that characterize your donor constituencies, including how to find donor data and how to conduct prospect screening​.
