REMINDER: Please help ASPT to fund the last travel grant applicants this year. The time period for donations has been extended through Monday June 25. Please see the message below for details...
Many thanks to those who participated in our May fundraising blitz! As a result, we were able to
offer TWO ADDITIONAL travel grants to students on the lottery alternate list. Both students
were grateful and accepted immediately!
If you didn’t have an opportunity to donate during the first blitz, now is your chance! We are opening up the travel grant fundraising for one additional week starting today! Wouldn’t
it be amazing if we could raise the entire $1340.00 needed to offer travel grants to the last four
students on our alternate list? Any funds raised over the $1340.00 amount (hey, I love
being an optimist!) will be used to help support students traveling to the Botany 2019
meeting.
ASPT has been working hard this year to increase our student membership numbers.
By supporting as many of our students as possible with Travel Grants, we hope to
provide our students with the opportunity to establish a relationship with ASPT that
could lead to mentoring opportunities, lifelong memberships, and participation in
activities and society leadership.
Best regards,
Linda Brown
