The LSAC Subcommittee on Grants and Awards is now accepting Local Section Innovative Project Grant (IPG) proposals through January 31, 2013. The purpose of the Local Section IPG Program is to initiate projects in local sections to increase member involvement, improve services to members, and increase the public's understanding of chemistry. Each local section IPG proposal can be funded up to $3,000.
It is a requirement that local sections submit final reports for any previously funded IPGs in order to be considered for new proposals. Once any outstanding final reports are received, your local section can apply for an IPG by filling out an application form and submitting electronically, along with relevant letters of support, to lsac@acs.org. The deadline for receipt of proposals is January 31, 2013.
