Other Awards

Special Projects Grants
The WAPA Foundation encourages submissions for funding of any special projects that meet its mission of leadership, education, research or service. Requests most likely to be funded will not be in excess of other scholarship amounts. Grant requests may be made by any WAPA member or on behalf of other organizations by a WAPA member as sponsor. Requests may be made at any time but will not be voted upon until the next quarterly meeting of the Foundation Trustees. These meetings occur in conjunction with Fall and Spring CME conferences, and the January and July WAPA board meetings. Funding decisions will be made on the basis of how well the request meets the Foundation’s mission.
