August 1 marks six months since Funding Attractions was launched and we wanted to do something special to thank our readers.  As you may remember from one of Liza’s recent posts, we recently released eight new titles for grantseekers, grant managers and auditors. We’ve decided to give away one of those per week through Labor Day, and you get to tell us which one you want!

All of the new publications are available as downloadable PDFs, and some of them are available in hard copy as well. Six provide concrete information that makes it easier for grant professionals to handle specific challenges related to the Office of Management and Budget’s Circular A-133:

• Effective Subrecipient Monitoring [also available in hard copy];
• The 14 Areas of A-133 Single Audit Compliance Testing [also available in hard copy];
• How to Find the Best Auditor for Your Circular A-133 Audit;
• How to Submit Circular A-133 Single Audit Reports;
• A Guide to Compiling an A-133 Single Audit Report; and 
• Auditor Responsibilities Prior To Compiling the A-133 Single Audit Report [also available in hard copy].

The other new publications, both of which are available as downloadable PDFs or in hard copy, offer grantseekers detailed information and our exclusive analysis of dozens of important federal assistance opportunities:

• Federal Funding Focus – Community Development; and
• Federal Funding Focus – Economic Development.

Each Thursday between now and Labor Day, we’ll draw a name from all those who’ve entered to date, and each Friday we’ll announce that week’s winner here on the blog.  Entering is super-easy:

1. Go to the “Post a Comment” section below any post;
2. Enter your name, email address, and the name and format of the publication you’d like; and
3. Hit “Post Comment.”

That’s it!  You DON’T need to register or subscribe in order to be eligible for the giveaway – we just need to know who you are, how to get in touch with you if you win, and which publication you’d like.  We’ll roll everyone who’s entered into subsequent drawings, so the sooner you enter, the better your odds will be!  The first drawing will be on Thursday, August 5, and we’ll announce the winner here on Friday, August 6.

Finally, thank you. This has been a great adventure so far, and we’re really glad to have you along for the ride.

Any questions?
