Sources of annual reports

Look at Unit Two, Lesson Four for ideas on where to get annual reports from foundations. You might call a foundation and ask to get copies of annual reports that are a year or two old. Then everyone will have a copy and you can use them for a class assignment.

The Resources of the Learning to Give website has a section on Foundations that may be helpful if you are unable to find local foundations.
