Our nonprofit profits training in grant research and writing to mostly volunteers who wish to assist a nonprofit of their choice with their grant research and writing. I’d love to know how many nonprofits are located in and around the Charleston, SC area? If you don’t know, could you suggest where I could obtain that information.
