Grants already paid are the record; PaperOrbit reads your paper and finds the foundations whose record matches it — then explains why.
Start with one paperSource: IRS Form 990-PF, Part XV, as filed by the foundation. These are grants already paid — a record of what this funder backs, not an open call. Most private foundations do not accept unsolicited applications; the route in is usually a program officer.
