A WORD FROM THE EDITOR

The holiday season is upon us and yet we have miles to go before we can celebrate. With year-end giving goals dominating the discourse in development offices, this month's Internet Prospector opens the door to resources that will help you shine. Whether you work in areas impacted by Hurricanes Rita and Katrina or prospect for funding in China and the United Kingdom, know that charitable giving is supported 100 percent by the IRS and that all your research into net worth and giving capacity will bear added fruit at year end.
