    Area of Science:

    • Physical Therapy
    • Health Services Research
    • Nonprofit Management

    Background:

    • Foundation managers act as catalysts for change, not primary drivers.
    • Physical therapists, as clinical researchers, need to be proactive in shaping patient care and service delivery.
    • External funding is crucial for advancing physical therapy research and practice.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To encourage physical therapists to become instigators of change in their field.
    • To highlight the role of foundations in supporting advancements in physical therapy.
    • To provide a framework for approaching foundations for research funding.

    Main Methods:

    • The article outlines a straightforward approach for researchers to engage with foundations.
    • It emphasizes the importance of aligning research projects with foundation goals.
    • The core challenge identified is securing adequate financial resources.

    Main Results:

    • Foundations are generally receptive and supportive of well-defined research proposals.
    • The primary obstacle to funding is the availability of sufficient financial resources, not a lack of interest or understanding.
    • Successful funding depends on the researcher, project, and foundation alignment.

    Conclusions:

    • Physical therapists must embrace an instigator role to direct the future of patient care.
    • Foundations serve as vital partners, providing the necessary financial support for research-driven change.
    • Strategic engagement with the right foundation is key to overcoming funding limitations.
