HELLO ALL OUT THERE!
I have not been responding, but watching and keeping busy at my own pace.... After recently attending a GrantWriting Workshop I have received the following notice which I hope is of some interest to all of us at GRNO.... Hoping someone, aside from me, will do some follow-up and see what and where these types of "interests" may lead.... Also look into other resources who want to do research or have interests in supporting our GRNO...Since this specific program requires non-profit status, GRNO might consider partnering with a California University or other Environmental Org. that is non-profit:
