FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and GrantStation.com Inc. have launched a new publication, International GrantStation Insider, focused entirely on international development opportunities. The free, monthly e-newsletter will be sent the last Monday of every month and will provide readers with the latest information on new funding programs and upcoming grant deadlines, as well as general information for all grant seekers.

The International Insider will be one of the most comprehensive resources available on worldwide grant information. It will keep development organizations around the globe up-to-date on grant programs, industry news, conferences, and training opportunities.

"USAID recognizes the vital role that community and State organizations play in advancing development efforts. Therefore we are continually pursuing innovative mechanisms and strategies to support their work. This groundbreaking newsletter will be a step towards providing these groups with information about funding opportunities and other resources that will help them better address some of the most critical needs in our world today," stated Terri Hasdorff, Director of the USAID Center for Faith-Based and Community Initiatives.

A wide variety of foundations, corporations, and other international development donors, both domestic and abroad, will contribute their available funding opportunities to the e-newsletter. In addition, USAID, the U.S. State Department, the U.K. Department for International Development, and other foreign government funding sources will list their grant and funding opportunities.

To sign up for the International Insider or to view the first issue, please visit www.grantstation.com.

The American people, through the U.S. Agency for International Development, have provided economic and humanitarian assistance worldwide for nearly 50 years.
