About the Directory of Maine Grantmakers
The Directory of Maine Grantmakers, available in both print and online versions, contains up-to-date profiles of over 400 funders that have a history of supporting Maine nonprofits.
If you are searching for the latest, most complete data on Maine funders, look no further.
- 65% of all funders listed in the Directory do not have a website, making our Directory the best place to find information about them.
- Each record now lists the number of grants and the grant range amount in addition to sample grants to Maine.

Print Edition (Discontinued)
In order to facilitate more frequent profile updates and new data services, we have decided to discontinue the print version of the Directory of Maine Grantmakers. This decision was based on limited staff capacity, expanded member data benefits including the Philanthropy Data Request Form, and feedback from recent print Directory purchasers.
With this change, you will find improvements such as:
- Grantmaker profiles will be reviewed yearly (previously every two years)
- More staff capacity to provide services including the Philanthropy Data Request Form
- More frequent releases of new features for the Directory and related research resources
The online Directory of Maine Grantmakers will continue to be a member-only benefit. Nonmembers can use the online Directory by making a grant research support appointment.
You can find worksheets and guides for organizing and optimizing your grantseeking that were previously included in the print version of the Directory on our Grant Research resource.
