OMB Webinars About Recovery Act Funds Reporting Requirements

Don Griesmann writes Don Griesmann's Nonprofit Blog and he wrote a very informative post about the federal Office of Management and Budget Announces Recovery Act Reporting Webinars (click this link to see his post).

These informative webinars will be of crucial interest to any nonprofit or other entity applying for or planning to apply for American Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009 funds. These webinars will explain how grant recipients are required to track, report, etc. how the grant money is spent. The first webinar will be on July 20th. The next is to follow in August (they have yet to set that webinar's date, as of the date of this post). The post is very informative, so I recommend it.
