About the Catalogue for Philanthropy
Created as a project of the Harman Family Foundation in 2003, the Catalogue for Philanthropy began out of a desire to help donors find and support community-based nonprofits – those with great local impact, but little visibility and limited capacity to tell their stories to a larger audience. While national databases like Charity Navigator (2001) and Network for Good (2003) were beginning to emerge, there was still no source of vetted, trustworthy, smaller nonprofits (budgets < $4 million) – especially one that was local in focus.
The inaugural print Catalogue, focused on the District, was released in 2003 and mailed to 30,000 households in the Washington region. It raised a half million dollars. In 2004 the scope expanded to cover nonprofits in nearby Maryland and Virginia counties as well. In 2006 the Catalogue became an independent public charity, and it now raises over $7 million annually for local nonprofits in the metropolitan Washington region.

"I like that IMCC focuses on dementia-related problems and provides a focal point for families to network and socially interact in coping with dementia. It provides a community that helps us in our struggle."
