Gifford Foundation changes how it will help nonprofits - Syracuse.com: "The Gifford Foundation will change how it allocates hundreds of thousands of dollars each year to needy local groups, said Kathy Goldfarb-Findling, its executive director. The move will have an impact on how the $500,000 and $700,000 normally allocated to about 50 local nonprofit agencies is distributed, she said. The foundation used to give grants for a broad range of needs. Under the new system, Goldfarb-Findling said, money will be awarded only for the purposes of 'capacity building.'"
