In 1968, while working in the inner sanctum of government as a congressional

and gubernatorial press secretary, John R. Bruno, Sr. recognized that munici-

palities were not pursuing federal and state grant funding simply because they did

not have the resources to do so. Responding to this need, John founded Bruno As-

sociates, Inc. to empower public entities with quality services and expertise that

would enable them to raise money without raising taxes.

Our track record speaks for itself. Over the past 40 years, Bruno Associates has

secured more than $500 million in grant funding, emerging as a foremost author-

ity in grant procurement for municipalities and counties, public school districts,

educational institutions, and non-profit organizations.

Among some pretty stiff competition, Bruno Associates, Inc. continues to remain

one of the oldest, family-owned grant and public relations consulting firms in the

state of New Jersey. Our reputation is built on commitment, consistent leadership

and your success. Our stability and depth of experience combine to assist you to

expand and develop in the future – fiscally and responsibly.

We are a company where experience counts.

How We Help: Hundreds of communi-ties across the nation

are using the FundBook to navigate an increasing array of federal funding opportunities available to cities and counties each year. De-signed to give local government leaders a commanding view of the fed-eral funding process, each issue promotes and educates a do-it-yourself approach to pursuing assistance in Washington, D.C. and working with the federal agencies. The FundBook is designed to be the most user-friendly federal funding resource for all sizes of local government.

Why Us? Unlike other news magazines or govern-ment relations products designed for local

governments, the FundBook endeavors to provide specific, actionable advice rather than general news and policy information. Drawing upon the grant and appropriations experience of our staff and contributors, we strive to give our readers the tools needed to stay on top of the federal funding process every step of the way.
