[Nfbf-l] grant writing and research HELP NEEDED

[taraprakash]

Hello all.

I would like to help in grant writing. I did offer to Sheri last year to 
write grants for newsline but the plan did not go ahead. If I know the 
specific areas in which grants are required and also perhaps samples of some 
successful grants, I surely can help.


Regards

Tara
