Prospect researchers can now explore data on 60,000 donations worth AUS$600m to 
Australian charities. The Giftsearch database has been developed by Australian prospect
research agency FR&C and UK and Europe based Factary.

The database consists of public domain information on donors to Australian nonprofits.
It includes the names of trustees and patrons of leading Australian nonprofits.

It can be searched by geographic area, name, organisation and type of donor (company,
foundation, person). The data includes a link to the source for every record.

The database is hosted by Factary, using the software we developed for [Factary Phi](http://factary.com/Phi.html),
the UK online database on donors and philanthropy. Like Factary Phi, Giftsearch 
is a subscription service. The database is updated regularly with newly researched
public domain data.
