/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SEO Resource, a search engine optimization firm that works with non-profit organizations is taking Google up on their Google Grants offer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Talk of Google Grants first surfaced in January 2004 and now the talk has resumed with the recent re-introduction of the Google Grants program at: http://www.google.com/grants/ which awards free AdWords advertising to 501(c)(3) organizations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Google Vice President of global online sales and operations, Sheryl Sandburg, has stated on various websites that Google wants to give back to the community and '… it would be a great opportunity for us to refer people interested in the topics that these non-profits work on.'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'SEO Resource, a company which also believes in giving back, works with non-profit organizations on a philanthropic basis and promotes these websites through SEM methods to gain exposure for worthy causes,' according to Kevin S. Kantola, CEO of SEO Resource.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'We are working with such organizations as U. S. Doctors for Africa and Neuroscience Initiative to give these non-profits exposure on the Internet and help connect them with donors and volunteers who wish to help with these causes,' Mr. Kantola states. 'The Google Grants program is an excellent avenue for increasing exposure for these websites and this complements the search engine optimization work that we do. These two non-profits have already signed up.'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to the details section of the Google Grants area the application process works as follows: 'The Google Grants committee (consisting of Google employees) is responsible for selecting award recipients. We will confirm your 501(c)(3) status, and review your application carefully."&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS FACE $38.2 BILLION DEFICIT &lt;br /&gt;Grants and Loans Provide Relief to Individuals and Small Business&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many states are facing huge budget shortfalls this year, partially due to the 9/11 calamity and sagging economy. California is facing a 38.2 billion dollar deficit in its budget. Beside the drop in consumer spending and tourism, the state is sorely missing revenue from capital gains on stock options which amount to a&lt;br /&gt;quarter of their total fiscal resources.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In an effort to help stimulate national and state economies, government and private lending institutions are combining efforts to make it easier for people to acquire funds to buy a home, car, consolidate debts or start a new business. 'Now is the time for people to act if you need money for any purpose,' according to Terry Newborn, researcher for Government Publications, a Washington, DC based firm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In addition, Mr. Newborn announced there are several reduced cost or free benefit programs to help California residents who lost jobs or are economically disadvantaged. For example, dental care, eye care services, prescription plans and legal services as well as unlimited free Internet services to all residents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Furthermore, HUD Secretary Mel Martinez and President Bush have announced a "Homebuyers Bill of Rights." Some of the nation's largest financial institutions have committed themselves to increasing home buying opportunities for minorities, credit impaired, the&lt;br /&gt;homeless, the elderly, and people with disabilities or subsidized incomes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Never before has it been easier to get a HUD guaranteed mortgage loan," Mr. Newborn proclaimed. It's all part of a joint government and banking initiative to revitalize the economy. "Mortgage interest rates are at a 35 year low so right now is the time to start canvassing the housing market for that dream home," Mr. Newborn stated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Government Publications offers a CD-Rom Business Kit which details information on all the new programs, free services and special programs for women and minorities. It reveals how and where to apply for free grant and loan resources for any worthwhile purpose. The CD-Rom sells for $39.95. To order, log on to web site: www.govpub.org or call 800-306-0873. The CD Rom also includes 50 successful grant applications that were already funded. "These sample applications serve as useful guidelines for anyone applying for grants or loans," Mr. Newborn urged. "They are invaluable because most loan and grant applications are not denied because of ineligibility but due to improper or incomplete paperwork," he noted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This article

type='text'>Female Website Owner 'Gives Back'</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://iwannagrant.com/newsletters/issue24.html"&gt;WomensNet.Net&lt;/a&gt;: "Female Website Owner 'Gives Back' With New Round of Amber Grants to Women Entrepreneurs&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WomensNet.Net a popular online business-focused website for women, today announced that it has opened a new round of funding for the popular Amber Grants for Women Entrepreneurs. The program opened for applications June 1, and will continue indefinitely. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The recently re-designed site has been online since 1998, and began offering the Amber Grants in 2000. 'It's an important part of what we are and what we try to teach,' says WomensNet.Net founder, Melody Wigdahl. 'I believe strongly in sharing the knowledge and in mentoring. I also know from personal experience that sometimes just a few hundred dollars extra might mean the difference between struggling forever - or being able to change your life for the better.'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Amber Grants are small cash grants, usually from $500 to $1000, and may be used for any business purpose, with no need for repayment. Amber was Ms. Wigdahl's 19 year old sister, who died in 1981.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'Amber was an incredible young woman' says Wigdahl, 'with dreams and goals that she never had the chance to fulfill - it's my hope that I can help other women achieve their dreams in Amber's name.'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WomensNet.Net is a network of business oriented women's sites encompassing everything from a full marketplace with online 'shoppes' to a 'state of the art' community for learning and networking. Built around around a 'Friendster' type database, entrepreneurs can match up with potential business partners for joint ventures, marketing promotions, etc. The site is highly content laden, featuring reviews of other websites, books and offline resources for the women business owner - or those that want to be but don't know where to start. Live "voice over internet" technology allows WNN to offer teleclasses without the usual long distance fees. WNN charges no fees for for access or site use.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"It's been a long year putting all of this together, but the response has been almost overwhelming. It's been fun watching the activity build! The next phase is an auction house and a full digital publishing house for our own line of women-authored Ebooks!" says Wigdahl, with a grin. "but first, I am going to get a couple of good night's sleep - there haven't been many of those the last couple of months!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Amber Grant applications are available at the website, http://www.womensnet.net. There are no application fees, and no geographical restrictions for the grants. Please visit the web site for full details and guidelines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WomensNet.Net is the parent site of the WomensNet Network, Where Women Mean Business

/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;: "Government Offers Government Grants and Loans to Women, Minorities and The Credit Impaired.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are recently unemployed or credit problems are holding you back from starting a business, buying a home or new car, here is important news. Government and private lending institutions are now joining forces to stimulate the national economy and make it easier for women, minorities and people with poor credit ratings to get low interest loans.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;President Bush also announced a breakthrough for Faith Based and Community Organizations.&lt;br /&gt;Policies have been lifted which prohibited them from receiving government funding based on religious affiliations. Churches and religious based community organizations can now compete on equal footing for available federal dollars.&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;br /&gt;Terry Newborn, a researcher for Government Publications in Washington, DC reported, 'There are billions of dollars in grants and loans earmarked for people previously identified as credit risks. Public and private funds are now available for them to buy homes, cars, start a business, consolidate debts and any worthwhile purpose'. In addition, he reported new financial resources have been committed to help the unemployed get job training and re-enter the job market.    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'Now is the time for citizens to act if they need money for any worthwhile purpose,' urged Newborn. He also revealed that several reduced-cost and even free programs now exist to benefit economically disadvantage and recently unemployed persons. &lt;br /&gt;Such programs include dental and vision care services, prescription plans and legal aid. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Government Publications offers a CD-Rom that provides the latest information on the above programs. It covers free grant and loan resources available for a wide variety of purposes, including business start-ups. President Bush declared, "The entrepreneurial spirit in America is healthy. It is a great strength of our country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you feel like you`ve got what it takes to start a business, if you want to go out on your own, you think you`ve got a good product, the country says, we welcome you to do so". This CD Rom includes start-up information on several home-based business opportunities. For example, How to Buy and Sell Foreclosed Properties, How to Start a Profitable Gift Basket Business and How to become a Loan Broker.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The CD Rom sells for $39.95. It also includes 50 successful grant applications that were funded. These sample applications are essential items since most denied loan and grant applications are due to improper or incomplete paperwork.

"Website Removes Mortgage Loan Frustration - Down Payment Grants Offered&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We created IntegraLoan.com to bring the consumer what they are looking for,honest, informative, and practical information without any hype,' said Camie Larson, founder of the Utah company doing business in Montana, Colorado, Idaho, and Utah. Consumers can easily find the information they need, figure out what loan is best, find current rates, make calculations, and then actually apply on-line once they decide what is best.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More and more consumers are shopping and buying everything from books to cars on the Internet, so it is no surprise that there is a large demand for mortgage services on-line.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Newly married couples no longer have to wait years before they can buy a house in order to save a down payment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Visitors to http://IntegraLoan.com quickly discover that they can get valuable information quickly and easily, and without having to give their name, e-mail, and phone number. Information on down payment grants, a chart to easily figure out what loan is right for you, and many different calculators are all available without first giving your name.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps the most helpful section of the site deals with grants that cover down payments. The Buyer's Assistance Program provides a form of gift that can be used to cover 100 percent of the down payment, which makes a new home that much easier to obtain. A grant does not need to be repaid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you visit http://IntegraLoan.com you will be able to find plenty of helpful information, and make calculations such as:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Monthly Loan Payment Calculator&lt;br /&gt;Detailed Mortgage Calculator&lt;br /&gt;Mortgage Qualification Calculator&lt;br /&gt;Rent vs Own Calculator&lt;br /&gt;How Much Can I Afford?&lt;br /&gt;Prepayment Mortgage Reduction&lt;br /&gt;Principal After X Years&lt;br /&gt;Bi-Weekly Mortgage Calculator&lt;br /&gt;Prepayment Analysis Calculator&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The information is very easy to understand, and takes only a few minutes to use. Customers of http://IntegraLoan.com are pleasantly surprised to find that they can get the information they need in a simple form. Making the right decision is quick and easy, and the application process is handled on-line in only a few minutes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The company maintains a toll-free phone line for those who wish to talk with a real person rather than go to the website.

DOZENS OF GRANTS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- 'In the past our real grass-root organizations have provided quality community based services, but have not applied for or received adequate funding to do so,' explains Sherry Priester Paramore, CEO of Specialized Grant Services, Inc. 'My goal is to help them obtain funding to support the work they are doing in our communities.' The informational session will provide a brief overview of current grants available and assistance on how to apply, including some helpful grant writing tips.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Utilizing her experience of over 10 years in grant writing and non profit management, Paramore specifically designed Specialized Grant Services, Inc. to help local non profit organizations get their 'fair share' of funding to support the valuable community based services they provide. These are the people who have ideas for improving their community and a commitment to hard work. But sometimes may additional help and skills or resources to bring those ideas to fruition. 'Our staff works with churches and other organizations to establish programs, prepare grant applications, create budgets, carry out the work and evaluate their success' says Paramore. &lt;br

As one of the President's 24 E-Government initiatives, Grants.gov is a unified, easy-to-use "storefront" that allows customers of Federal grants to electronically find and apply for grants.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Edcomm's role on this initiative included:&lt;br /&gt;*Web Site Redesign&lt;br /&gt;*Online Support&lt;br /&gt;*Customer Outreach&lt;br /&gt;*Grant Agency Training&lt;br /&gt;*Contact Center&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Web Site Redesign&lt;br /&gt;With 26 federal grant-making agencies representing over 900 grant opportunities, it was decided that a comprehensive and 508 compliant web site would be the best resource for those seeking grants and information about grants. The Edcomm Group wrote the content, created all graphical elements, and designed and coded all navigation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Online Support&lt;br /&gt;Each page of the website included searchable help windows containing detailed procedures and screen shots. An interactive tutorial provides a comprehensive introduction and overview of all site functionality. Additional support consisted of online FAQs by topic, a glossary of terms, and a printable User Guide for easy desk reference.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Customer Outreach&lt;br /&gt;An animated overview provided background information and process introduction to help facilitate the transition from the traditional paper-based application method to the newly-developed online application method. The overview explained the new processes from both the grantor and applicant views, and helped make the new online application less intimidating and easier to use.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Grant Agency Training&lt;br /&gt;The Edcomm Group provided on-site training to all participating agencies. Training sessions involved walking the participants through the new site, as well as providing accompanying support materials.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Contact Center&lt;br /&gt;Telephone and email support was provided via Edcomm's fully staffed Contact Center. Contact Center representatives answered questions regarding eligibility, processes, and paperwork using a Contact Center Management system created especially for this project. The management system allowed Edcomm to document each call and track the progress of each contact. It also provided online telephone scripts allowing the representatives to quickly and accurately answer caller inquiries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Edcomm Group has had the privilege of assisting many distinguished clients with business solutions in the form of classroom instruction, print publication, video production, online documentation, interactive web systems and multimedia programs. In addition to the development of customized programs, The Edcomm Group offers many industry specific off-the-shelf products that have proven themselves effective in organizations around the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Edcomm Group is a 17-year-old multimedia education and communication consulting firm specializing in the development of creative business solutions that improve productivity; customer service and market share — providing bottom-line results.

Opportunities and Work at Home Jobs Offer Relief in Sluggish Economy&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-- Few people realize the Federal Government has billions of dollars in free aid and technical assistance available for women,minorities, church groups and small business. Many of these government grants,loans and other sources of aid are never awarded. The reasons are eligible businesses and entrepreneurs do not know about them or give up their search after being confronted with bureacratic red tape.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are recently unemployed or credit problems are holding you back from starting a business, buying a home or new car, here is important news. Government and private lending institutions are now joining forces to stimulate the national economy and make it easier for women, minorities and people with poor credit ratings to get low interest loans.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;President Bush also announced a breakthrough for Faith Based and Community Organizations. Policies have been lifted which prohibited them from receiving government funding based on religious affiliations. Churches and religious based community organizations can now compete on equal footing for available federal dollars. Terry Newborn, a researcher for Government Publications in Washington, DC reported, "There are billions of dollars in grants and loans earmarked for people previously identified as credit risks. Public and private funds are now available for them to buy homes, cars, start a business, consolidate debts and any worthwhile purpose." In addition, he reported new financial resources have been committed to help the unemployed get job training and re-enter the job market.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Now is the time for citizens to act if they need money for any worthwhile purpose," urged Newborn. He also revealed that several reduced-cost and even free programs now exist to benefit economically disadvantaged and recently unemployed persons. Such programs include dental and vision care services, prescription plans and legal aid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Government Publications offers a CD-Rom that provides the latest information on the above programs. It covers free grant and loan resources available for a wide variety of purposes, including business start-ups. President Bush declared, "The entrepreneurial spirit in America is healthy. It is a great strength of our country. If you feel like you've got what it takes to start a business, if you want to go out on your own, you think you've got a good product, the country says, we welcome you to do so." This CD Rom includes start-up information on several home-based business opportunities. For example, How to Buy and Sell Foreclosed Properties, How to Start a Profitable Gift Basket Business,How to Start A Cleaning Business and How to Become a Loan Broker.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The CD Rom sells for $39.95. It also includes 50 successful grant applications that were funded. These sample applications are essential items since most denied loan and grant applications are due to improper or incomplete paperwork. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For more information log on to &lt;br

Resource&lt;/a&gt;: "Grants and Scholarships Dull the Sting of Higher Tuition Costs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At a time when unemployment is high, personal income is flat, and college-level education is a requirement for most well-paying jobs, public colleges continue to become less affordable for Washington residents. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A slow economy has caused a sharp drop in college and university state spending. According to The National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education, public four-year college tuition in Washington has increased 13%. The result; a higher cost for higher education&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"However, there is money available for the diligent," assures Monica Wheeler author of the new e-resource guide 35 Practical Ways to Get Money for College, "Total state financial aid has been raised from $100 million to $113 million to compensate for the higher cost. These state grants and scholarships offered through the private sector are available to pay increasing tuition cost." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Awards, need and merit based, are usually categorized by geographic location, special interest, or major career fields. "Since criteria are specific, finding the right award can be tedious- but considering the current economic recession, well worth the effort," explains Wheeler. She advises exploring the following options for a productive grant and scholarship search:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Guidance Counselor - High School Guidance Counselors are on the front lines with access to information on numerous awards. Start, but don't end your search at their office door.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Online Search-The Internet has emerged as a key source of scholarship information. The following are a handful of helpful sites.&lt;br /&gt;http://www.wiredscholar.com Wired Scholar has one of the internet's largest databases of financial aid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.fastweb.com FastWeb allows you to search 600,000 scholarships worth over $1 billion dollars.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.brokescholar.com The BrokeScholar database matches student profiles with more than 900,000 scholarships worth over $3 billion to find the most relevant and obtainable opportunities. They also feature a personalized deadline calendar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.collegeboard.com The College Board is a trusted source that offers a search with 2,000 scholarships, internships, and loan programs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Public and School Libraries-While you want to use the Internet for searches; there is a lot of competition. Got to local libraries and check with the reference desk for state government, institutional, and private student aid scholarship directories. Most of the awards listed are duplicated online, but not all. By investing time to thumb through the telephone-directory-sized books you may find one or two the competition will miss.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Local Organizations -There is a better chance of winning money from local organizations such as churches, clubs, community groups, and unions since fewer students are likely to apply. Look specifically for local chapters of larger, national organizations that often give money to students living in certain areas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Place of Employment-Employers may also offer grants and scholarships. Inquire at your personnel office. Dependent students should ask their parent or legal guardian to check the availability of awards.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Announcements -Keep your eyes open. Take time to read bulletin boards, posters, and articles in newspapers for competition announcements. Some scholarships are episodic and may occur only once. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;About Monica Wheeler:&lt;br /&gt;Monica Wheeler is a national- award- winning freelance journalist, who has helped thousands of parents and students prepare for university admissions with articles for College Bound Magazine, Private Colleges &amp; Universities Publications, and the special College Edition of the New York Daily News.

type='text'>Government Grants and Loans Offers help to Victims of "Exporting Of America"</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://iwannagrant.com/newsletters/issue6.html"&gt;Exporting Of America&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are recently unemployed or credit problems are holding you back from starting a business, buying a home or new car, here is important news. Government and private lending institutions are now joining forces to stimulate the national economy and make it easier for women, minorities and people with poor credit ratings to get low interest loans. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;President Bush also announced a breakthrough for Faith Based and Community Organizations. Policies have been lifted which prohibited them from receiving government funding based on religious affiliations. Churches and religious based community organizations can now compete on equal footing for available federal dollars. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Terry Newborn, a researcher for Government Publications in Washington, DC reported, "There are billions of dollars in grants and loans earmarked for people previously identified as credit risks. Public and private funds are now available for them to buy homes, cars, start a business, consolidate debts and any worthwhile purpose". In addition, he reported new financial resources have been committed to help the unemployed get job training and re-enter the job market.     &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Now is the time for citizens to act if they need money for any worthwhile purpose", urged Newborn. He also revealed that several reduced-cost and even free programs now exist to benefit economically disadvantaged and recently unemployed persons. Such programs include dental and vision care services, prescription plans and legal aid. Government Publications offers a CD-Rom that provides the latest information on the above programs. It covers free grant and loan resources available for a wide variety of purposes, including business start-ups. President Bush declared, "The entrepreneurial spirit in America is healthy. It is a great strength of our country. If you feel like you`ve got what it takes to start a business, if you want to go out on your own, you think you`ve got a good product, the country says, we welcome you to do so". This CD Rom includes start-up information on several home-based business opportunities. For example, How to Buy and Sell Foreclosed Properties, How to Start a Profitable Gift Basket Business and How to become a Loan Broker.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The CD Rom sells for $39.95. It also includes 50 successful grant applications that ere funded. These sample applications are essential items since most denied loan and grant applications are due to improper or incomplete paperwork. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For more information log on to http://www.capitalpublications.com http://www.govpub.org http://www.scholarships-education.com and http://www.governmentjobcenter.org or call 800-306-0873 or 800-416-0712.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From: Government Publications                              &lt;br /&gt;1025 Connecticut Ave.                                  &lt;br /&gt;Suite 1012&lt;br /&gt;Washington, DC 20036&lt;br /&gt;Tele: 202-331-4477&lt;br /&gt;Contact: Terry Newborn&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This article courtesy of http://iwannagrant.com.&lt;br /&gt;You may freely reprint this article on your website or in &lt;br /&gt;your newsletter provided this courtesy notice and the author &lt;br /&gt;name and URL remain intact.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26204450-114783241223358009?l=iwannagrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://iwannagrant.com' title='Government Grants and Loans Offers help to Victims of &quot;Exporting Of America&quot;'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://iwannagrant.blogspot.com/feeds/114783241223358009/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=26204450&amp;postID=114783241223358009' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26204450/posts/default/114783241223358009'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26204450/posts/default/114783241223358009'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://iwannagrant.blogspot.com/2006/05/government-grants-and-loans-offers.html' title='Government Grants and Loans Offers help to Victims of &quot;Exporting Of America&quot;'/><author><name>gordanent</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09898876292469392805</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204450.post-114723439538016093</id><published>2006-05-10T00:12:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2006-08-27T22:58:30.900-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Scholarship Applications</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://iwannagrant.com/scholarships/"&gt;Scholarships&lt;/a&gt;: "  Scholarship  Scholarship Application  Scholarship Applications&lt;br /&gt;  Scholarship Essays  Scholarships  Scholarships And Grants  "&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26204450-114723439538016093?l=iwannagrant.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://iwannagrant.com' title='Scholarship Applications'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://iwannagrant.blogspot.com/feeds/114723439538016093/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=26204450&amp;postID=114723439538016093' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26204450/posts/default/114723439538016093'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26204450/posts/default/114723439538016093'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://iwannagrant.blogspot.com/2006/05/scholarship-applications.html' title='Scholarship Applications'/><author><name>gordanent</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09898876292469392805</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204450.post-114650369348505109</id><published>2006-05-01T13:14:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2006-08-27T22:57:10.090-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Government grants, loans, and American philanthropy</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://iwannagrant.com/newsletters/issue1.html"&gt;American philanthropy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since 1998 we have demonstrated a strong commitment to our product's quality and customer's satisfaction by offering the most advanced grant and loan retrieval information software and services than any other company in our industry.

With eight included modules—Organizations, Programs, Grants, Contacts, Grantors, Calendar, Reports, and Grant Writer—GrantWave allows budget planning during the pre-grant process; program tracking; staff, volunteer, liaison, lead, partnership, and board tracking. The software also delivers grant date reminders; a grant writing wizard to eliminate cutting and pasting; a boilerplate library on the organizational and program levels; and a comprehensive library of reports to keep nonprofits ready for presentations, grantor meetings, and board meetings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"One of the most damaging things I witnessed while working in the nonprofit sector was the missing of grant reporting deadline," says Mindcoast CEO, Melissa Koenig. "This wasn't due to incompetence or a lack of care—nonprofit employees work harder than most anyone I know—but rather development staff turnover and the lack of a comprehensive grants system. Everyone has their own way of managing grants. One woman I knew tracked over 112 government grants using her own Access database. When she left, it was very difficult for someone to step into her shoes. With GrantWave, we want to give nonprofits the same sense of continuity, control, and a sense of overall grants funding that is currently available with donor management systems."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a study conducted by CompassPoint regarding nonprofit turnover, 30% of Bay Area nonprofits had vacancies for 4 months or more. 47% of people leaving nonprofits were non-program staff, including CFOs and development directors.1 Turnover affects grant management as well as grantor relationships.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mindcoast, LLC, is offering a $500 discount through September 30, 2004, as part of their "Catch the First Wave" special. Purchasers will receive all upgrades for one year for free, in addition to a free Organization, Contact, and Grantor import. Anyone that recommends GrantWave to an organization or individual that then purchases the software will receive a $100 check for their referral.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A free 30-day, fully-functioning trial version of GrantWave Professional can be downloaded from www.mindcoast.com or a CD may be ordered online.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Key Product Features:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;System Requirements&lt;br /&gt;Operating systems&lt;br /&gt;-Microsoft Windows 2000 (Professional, Server, or Advanced Server) &lt;br /&gt;-Microsoft Windows XP (Home or Professional) &lt;br /&gt;-Microsoft Windows Server 2003 family &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Minimum Hardware Requirements: &lt;br /&gt;-Pentium class 500 MHz 96 MB &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recommended Hardware Requirements (any PC purchased within the past three years): &lt;br /&gt;-Pentium 1 GHz or faster, 128 MB or higher &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pricing:&lt;br /&gt;GrantWave Professional Gold Package &lt;br /&gt;-Full version of GrantWave Professional, all modules included. &lt;br /&gt;-Special Introductionary Offer: Free access to all minor and major updates and upgrades for one year &lt;br /&gt;-30-day unlimited, free email support, including free installation support &lt;br /&gt;-Unrestricted access to GrantWave's Member Section with user forum, knowledge base, peer-to-peer discussions, and much more. &lt;br /&gt;-Limited Time Offer: Catch the First Wave $1,995.00 (regular price: $2,495.00) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;GrantWave Professional Platinum Package &lt;br /&gt;-Full version of GrantWave Professional, all modules included. &lt;br /&gt;-Free access to all minor and major updates and upgrades for one year &lt;br /&gt;-1-year unlimited, free email support, including free installation support &lt;br /&gt;-Unrestricted access to GrantWave's Member Section with user forum, knowledge base, peer-to-peer discussions, and much more. &lt;br /&gt;-Limited Time Offer: Catch the First Wave $2,495.00 (regular price: $2,995.00) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mindcoast, LLC, is based in Bend, Oregon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CONTACT: Melissa Koenig (505) 577-5094&lt;br /&gt;CEO, Mindcoast, LLC&lt;br /&gt;info@mindcoast.com&lt;br /&gt;www.mindcoast.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mindcoast, LLC&lt;br /&gt;827 NW Georgia Avenue&lt;br /&gt;Bend, OR 97701&lt;br /&gt;(505) 577-5094&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1 Jeanne Peters, MNA, Anuska Fernandopulle, MBA, Jan Masaoka, Christina Chan, MPP, and Tim Wolfree, PsyD, Help Wanted: Turnover and Vacancy in Nonprofits (January 2002): 3;

According to The National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education, public four-year college tuition in Washington has increased 13%. The result; a higher cost for higher education&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"However, there is money available for the diligent," assures Monica Wheeler author of the new e-resource guide 35 Practical Ways to Get Money for College, "Total state financial aid has been raised from $100 million to $113 million to compensate for the higher cost. These state grants and scholarships offered through the private sector are available to pay increasing tuition cost." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Awards, need and merit based, are usually categorized by geographic location, special interest, or major career fields. "Since criteria are specific, finding the right award can be tedious- but considering the current economic recession, well worth the effort," explains Wheeler. She advises exploring the following options for a productive grant and scholarship search:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Guidance Counselor - High School Guidance Counselors are on the front lines with access to information on numerous awards. Start, but don't end your search at their office door.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Online Search-The Internet has emerged as a key source of scholarship information. The following are a handful of helpful sites.&lt;br /&gt;http://www.wiredscholar.com Wired Scholar has one of the internet's largest databases of financial aid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.fastweb.com FastWeb allows you to search 600,000 scholarships worth over $1 billion dollars.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.brokescholar.com The BrokeScholar database matches student profiles with more than 900,000 scholarships worth over $3 billion to find the most relevant and obtainable opportunities. They also feature a personalized deadline calendar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.collegeboard.com The College Board is a trusted source that offers a search with 2,000 scholarships, internships, and loan programs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Public and School Libraries-While you want to use the Internet for searches; there is a lot of competition. Got to local libraries and check with the reference desk for state government, institutional, and private student aid scholarship directories. Most of the awards listed are duplicated online, but not all. By investing time to thumb through the telephone-directory-sized books you may find one or two the competition will miss.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Local Organizations -There is a better chance of winning money from local organizations such as churches, clubs, community groups, and unions since fewer students are likely to apply. Look specifically for local chapters of larger, national organizations that often give money to students living in certain areas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Place of Employment-Employers may also offer grants and scholarships. Inquire at your personnel office. Dependent students should ask their parent or legal guardian to check the availability of awards.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Announcements -Keep your eyes open. Take time to read bulletin boards, posters, and articles in newspapers for competition announcements. Some scholarships are episodic and may occur only once. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;About Monica Wheeler:&lt;br /&gt;Monica Wheeler is a national- award- winning freelance journalist, who has helped thousands of parents and students prepare for university admissions with articles for College Bound Magazine, Private Colleges &amp; Universities Publications, and the special College Edition of the New York Daily News.

While there may only be a handful of private foundations in your area - there are literally 1,000's of private foundations and non-profit organizations across America who are ready and willing to send money to those who have a genuine need for it.&lt;br /&gt;We cannot guarantee everyone a free cash grant in the mail. However, it is a known fact that Private Foundations approve cash grants at a much higher rate of approval than getting a small loan from a local bank.&lt;br /&gt;Have you been turned down from receiving a loan by a local bank because of poor credit, no credit or bankruptcy? Private Foundations are not interested in credit ratings, only demonstrated need. It is much easier to receive a grant by mail from a Private Foundation than a local bank, because they are much more lenient. Imagine getting a check, payable to you, in the mail!
