Thompson's GrantsWire Experiences Phenomenal Growth During First Year

WASHINGTON, April 8, 2008 /PRNewswire/ -- Thompson Publishing Group, a leading publisher of Grants and Education compliance resources, announced today that its first foray into the e-mail distribution of publications has been a phenomenal success with its GrantsWire leading all other company publications in subscriber growth during its first year.

Created by Thompson Publishing Group with the busy grant professional in mind, GrantsWire provides all the just-released grant opportunities from scores of federal departments and agencies and hundreds of private and corporate foundations. Only one year after its launch, GrantsWire counts hundreds of grant professionals among its subscribers, who have become increasingly reliant on the timely funding opportunities and regulatory updates GrantsWire delivers each week.

    Each weekly GrantsWire e-mail provides grant professionals:

    -- Concise summaries of grant opportunities and regulatory actions they
       need to know about;
    -- A listing that zeroes in on the program area;
    -- Who's eligible;
    -- How grant funds can be used; and
    -- Hard-to-find contact information.

Each GrantsWire summary also links grant seekers and managers directly to the announcement or regulation (not just to the home page of the agency, foundation or corporation as do so many of our competitors). We'll get you right to the information, saving you hours of surfing time!

A one-year GrantsWire subscription includes one compact, easy-to-scan e-mail each week filled with all of the grant opportunities GrantsWire editors have zeroed in on, as well as just-announced rules that affect how you operate your current grant-funded programs. These summaries contain all of the pertinent intelligence you need to manage your federally funded programs - including a link to the actual rule!

GrantsWire editors spend their time doing the research so you don't have to! To sample what GrantsWire provides, go to www.grantswire.com and view GrantsWire archives, the federal agencies and foundations that we monitor, the communities we serve and the latest grants and education news.

And for only $99 per year, you can join the hundreds of your peers in the grants community who already take advantage of GrantsWire's concise, comprehensive coverage of the latest opportunities and changes in both federal and private grantmaking. For less than $2 per week, you can get the same timely intelligence they already depend upon to meet their critical funding needs! Customers can also share GrantsWire within their organization.
