The Freelance Prospect Research Network is an "initiative" of Chase Solutions Inc. Over the past eleven years, Chase Solutions has received numerous requests from freelance prospect researchers who would like to help out whenever we have excess prospect research work on our plate. Development of this Network is our attempt to address this need in an organized manner. Chase Solutions is a nationally known consulting firm providing prospect research and data screening solutions for philanthropic organizations. We are members of and subscribe to the codes of ethics of the Association of Professional Researchers for Advancement, the New England Association for Healthcare Philanthropy, the New England Development Research Association, and the Association for Fundraising Professionals. We believe in the Donor Bill of Rights and scrupulously protect the confidentiality of the prospect research process for the benefit of both those we research and those we conduct research for.

Advisory Board

The Network has recently established a distinguished advisory board to provide valuable guidance and input as we grow. We take great pleasure in introducing you to this group of philanthropic leaders.
