The New England Development Research Association (NEDRA) is the nation’s largest regional association of professionals working in prospect research and related areas of philanthropy.
With a membership base of nearly 400 professionals, NEDRA represents fundraising professionals in 24 states and Canada. Our members work across higher education, independent schools, healthcare, religious and social service organizations, arts and cultural institutions, national and regional nonprofit organizations, and consulting firms.
NEDRA members play a key role in decisions related to data products, consulting services, fundraising systems, and other organizational resources.
According to the 2025 NEDRA Membership Survey, 75% of respondents influence decisions about tools and resources for their organizations. Thirty percent hold Manager, Director, Vice President, or Assistant Vice President-level positions, and an additional 15% hold Associate or Assistant Director titles.
