Professionally Staffed Foundation Testimonials
McMurry Foundation
Trudi McMurry, Executive Director
"As one of the largest foundations in
Wyoming, we get many worthy grant
requests. Foundation Source allows us to
organize and respond to the requests by
managing our administrative needs effectively
and efficiently. They have become
our virtual back-office, allowing us to be
out in the community doing our good
work, not behind a desk managing our
'extensive' IRS obligations.
"Foundation Source provides the
technology and assistance to meet the
demands of a foundation that runs with
few staff, and I find them to be a valuable
asset to our foundation. All of the
people I work with at Foundation Source
are both knowledgeable and responsive
to our needs. I value their expertise.
"My job is more personally enriching,
as it should be in this line of business,
because I have more time to spend on
the families and charities we support as
opposed to the administrative aspects."
Edwards Mother Earth Foundation
Sonia Baker, Executive Director
"Foundation Source takes the tedious,
dull work out of running the foundation.
Now when we gather for foundation
business, we are far more productive and
really enjoy being together.
"We've been through many strategic
planning sessions in the past, but never
one as well done as with Foundation
Source. Because we are more focused now
on what we want to accomplish, we are
able to make a real impact with the dollars
we give. Foundation Source gives us
the guidance and tools to experiment with
new approaches to granting, such as
capacity-building grants and multi-year
grants, which we would not have considered
before.
"Whenever I have a question, all I have to
do is pick up the phone, and Foundation
Source is there with an answer."
Murphy Family Foundation
Karen Powers, Foundation Administrator
"Foundation Source has introduced the
Murphy Family Foundation to a totally
modern and much faster way of working
by receiving proposals online. We were
up and running far more quickly than we
expected. I'm always impressed by
Foundation Source's responsive service. It
surprises me how far their people will go
to assist us. Once, one of the trustees
called Foundation Source for assistance
well 'after hours,' because she needed
help accessing certain information. She
found someone who patiently walked her
through all the steps to locate the data
she needed. Foundation Source always
works hard to make sure that everything
works right."
