Welcome to Our Services

The Rural Philanthropy Resource Network's library is designed to support and foster growth of the rural nonprofit and voluntary sector. The library collects and filters resources and information which reflects the needs of rural organizations.  Our areas of focus include philanthropy and nonprofit organizational management. The library is fully accessible online, with most of our resources electronically based.
