If you need to learn how to write a grant proposal, the Foundation Center is the best place, in my opinion. I joined three free classes by now. The classes are well organized and helpful to understand granting process. You can also watch their classes anywhere you can use Internet.

President Signs Major Whistleblower Anti-fraud Law
This article is from Webwire.
Washington, D.C. May 20, 2009. Today President Barack Obama signed the Fraud Enforcement and Recovery Act of 2009. The Act significantly expands protections for whistleblowers who expose fraud in federal contracting.
“This is a great day for whistleblowers and a bad day for those who would defraud the government” Stephen M. Kohn, Executive Director of the NWC.
“President Obama has taken a significant first step in changing America’s whistleblower laws. We hope he continues to fulfill his campaign promises on this issue” Kohn stated.
“Congress and the President did the right thing. Billions and billions of dollars in new government spending has been authorized. The taxpayers need the strongest possible anti-fraud laws in order to prevent financial recovery monies from being looted. Every major study documents that whistleblowers are key to fraud detection. This law is designed to encourage whistleblowers and reward them for their sacrifices” Kohn added.
