Frequently Asked Questions About DonorSearch Data
A prospect research database is a platform that compiles information from various trusted, publicly available sources to help nonprofits learn more about their existing and potential donors and reveal the best candidates for major giving. The best prospect research databases (like DonorSearch!) contain millions or even billions of data points that cover donors’ wealth and philanthropic histories for a holistic understanding of each current or prospective supporter.
Traditional wealth screening focuses on details that demonstrate potential donors’ financial giving capacity, such as real estate ownership, stock holdings, and political giving history. However, the DonorSearch team understands that just because a donor can make a large gift to your nonprofit doesn’t mean they’ll want to do so.
To that end, our database combines wealth data with insights into donors’ philanthropic tendencies and organizational affinity (past charitable gifts, non-donation nonprofit involvement like volunteering and board service, relevant interests, etc.) to help you pinpoint donors who are able and willing to make impactful contributions to your organization.
DonorSearch’s database receives new information weekly, so you can always be confident that you’re accessing the most recent data on your prospects. As we update our database, we also regularly remove outdated or inconsistent information, which contributes to our solutions’ accuracy rates of over 90%.
Yes! Although DonorSearch is primarily designed for major giving, you can use our database to surface insights into donors’ employment, including whether they work for companies that run corporate giving programs like matching gifts, volunteer grants, payroll donations, or event sponsorships. Our database also integrates with Double the Donation, a leading workplace giving platform that provides even more granular insights into donors’ eligibility for these initiatives.
