# Find a contact

> Search and filter your contact list to find exactly who you need.

The **Contacts** page lists every household, organization, and foundation in your account. Use search and filters to narrow the list, then click any name to open that contact's profile.

## Search

Start typing in the search box at the top of the list. Advocora matches on:

* Contact **name**
* **Email** address
* **City**
* **ZIP / postal code**

Results update as you type, so you usually only need a few characters.

## Filters

Narrow the list using the filter dropdowns:

| Filter           | What it does                                                                                                       |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Donor status** | Show only Active donors, Inactive donors, or Non-donors. [Learn how status is calculated.](/contacts/donor-status) |
| **Type**         | Show only Households, Organizations, or Foundations.                                                               |
| **State**        | Show contacts in a specific U.S. state.                                                                            |
| **County**       | Show contacts in a specific county.                                                                                |

<Tip>
  Filters stack. For example, combine **Active donor** + **State: Texas** to see only your active donors in Texas.
</Tip>

## What the columns show

The list displays each contact's **Name**, **City**, **County**, **State**, **Donor status**, and **Type**. Donor status and type appear as color-coded badges so you can scan the list quickly.

## Paging through results

At the bottom of the list you can:

* Choose how many contacts to show per page (**10, 25, 50, or 100**).
* Move between pages with the page controls.

When you change a filter, the list jumps back to the first page so you never see stale results.
