san antonio gRANT WRITING WORKSHOP Testimonials, MARCH 2006
I loved the USGG grant writing class. The training materials were excellent. I enjoyed this course immensely due to the enthusiasm and uniqueness of the approach Beverly Santicola took in teaching grant writing. The location at Wayland Baptist University in San Antonio was great and easily accessible. Michelle Albert, MiLaNa Business Solutions – San Antonio, Texas
I loved the sample proposals and prospect lists. Other grant writing workshop trainers have been reluctant to give help in finding funders and providing sample proposals. This workshop was comprehensive and relevant. I was very impressed with the telephone calls and messages prior to the workshop. Jennifer Alexander, Boerne EMS Association – Boerne, Texas
