Chapter Grant Request
Grants to qualifying ASM Chapters
are available to help you plan and implement special programs designed to meet
the needs of your members. The Grant Program is administered by the ASM Chapter
Council, with the help of Chapter Relations staff at Materials Park.
Grant Application Procedures
Chapters should submit this grant proposal at least 45 days ahead of the program
or activity date. Due to the limited amount of funds available for the Grant
Program, approval of requests will depend upon strict demonstration of financial
need and the program’s merit.
Grant Purpose
Chapters may apply for a grant to:
implement new, financially risky programs (e.g., regional/joint
meetings with other chapters, career workshops, job fairs, seminars, short courses,
etc.)
conduct student outreach programs (e.g., science fairs, classroom
instruction)
send a representative to Leadership Days, when required to
do so in order to remain a Chapter in Good Standing
take the chapter through the Rejuvenation Process
conduct other special programs that are designed to meet a
critical need of the members
Items that may not be considered for Grants:
Publications such as yearbooks or monthly newsletters may
not be considered, since these are traditionally money-makers that bring in
advertising revenue
Social programs (such as golf outings)
Chapter scholarships
or awards.
