I want to thank you...we were just funded for two more grants totalling approx $50,000 for Draeger SCBAs. With your help, we've been funded just over $500,000! Your class was the best money I've ever spent.

Thank you for the excellent class you put on in Huntsville last Friday. You really turned me "into the wind" as far as pursuing funds through grants is concerned.
Your presentation and format for the class is outstanding and I recommend it for all who pursue grant writing activities.
Your score: 100.
