Funding

GRAPPA has achieved significant growth and financial stability since inception, with a positive financial balance at present. Major sources of funding for research and educational activities include donations from large corporations and small companies. Some strategies for generating further sources of revenue include increasing the number of fundraising events, increasing philanthropic outreach, and raising awareness through the GRAPPA website and social media. A dedicated endowment fund is still a consideration to fund ongoing research and education activities. Other strategies in support of generating research funding discussed during the meeting include using networks through the CRN, increasing staffing support in finance, and employing dedicated grant writers and study coordinators.
