"Just wanted to tell you that the GrantStation Insider is, by far, my favorite e-newsletter. I’ve actually secured two new grants for our organization thanks to Insider postings. These were grant opportunities that I’d not seen elsewhere. The Insider’s concise listing by category makes it easy to focus and follow up on opportunities for which New Eyes might be a good fit."
"I am sure that Cindy does not remember, but several years ago when the Greater Melbourne Police Athletic League (PAL) had first subscribed to GrantStation, I was participating in the free introductory webinar that Cindy gives to familiarize new member organizations with the capabilities that GrantStation provides. Cindy actually utilized our organization in an example on how to use the GrantStation database by asking me questions right there in the webinar in real-time, and identified a company that I had never heard of before: GTECH Corp. It turns out that GTECH runs the lotto games in many states across the U.S.; from the machines that sell the tickets in convenience stores to major computer networks. I wrote a proposal for GTECH's “After School Advantage” after-school program. In short, we won the program valued at $15,000 which consisted of 12 new, state-of-the-art computers, educational software, desks, furniture, and chairs. Our local paper even published an article about our award. I just wanted to say thank you. We have gone on to win other grants as well and at some point I'm going to put together a class on procuring grants and proposal writing so we can train our other volunteers."
