Hello all:
I just received this notice for a free subscription (through May)
to an extensive FUNDING ALERT service, and it suggests I pass this on, so
here it is. I've been receiving a more limited version of this service for
several years, and it has occasionally been useful: I created a "personal
profile" of preferences and funding areas, and receive regular (though
modest) information posts from time to time. This free enlarged offer is
obviously an advertisement for the product, which will launch in the market
early next year apparently. But it seems worth it at it's current price
(free), so I thought some of you might be interested.
Sincerely,
Maryellen Lewis
