Potential new funders
Potential new funders have not funded you since 2016, but they fund organizations in your funding network. They are ranked by the strength of their connections through your funders and funding peers.
In historical data, funders connected this way later funded an organization like yours about twenty times as often as a random eligible funder, and still only about one in fifty times. This is a historical pattern, not a prediction.
