Typical awards range up to $1200 - 3000 and occassionaly more. The Research Grants Program is administered by the CSSA Research Committee, which is overseen by the CSSA Board of Directors. The Research Grants Program is funded entirely from donations made to CSSA and dedicated to this program. Donors include individuals, organizations, and businesses. Substantial funding is derived from the Rare Plant Auction held at the CSSA Conventions and shows. Because the membership of the Cactus and Succulent Society of America is composedprimarily of hobbyists, and because research funds are donated primarily by hobbyists, many of the grants funded by the Society are for research that increases the level of knowledge and understanding of the members about succulent plants. General types of research supported by the CSSA include, but are not limited to, studies to discover new species or forms; of ecological associations; to increase knowledge of taxonomy, nomenclature, and biogeography; relating to all aspects of cultivation, artificial propagation and mass production; relating to conservation of threatened or endangered species; of basic biology, such as morphology and physiology, especially as these relate to the needs and interests of hobbyists.CSSA made 5 grants in 2024. 16742 3167 Other Program Revenues: DVDs and other sales 14342 STARTED IN 2020 DUE TO COVID WHEN MANY CLUBS COULD NOT MEET IN PERSON, MONTHLY WEBINARS CONTINUE SO MEMBERS CAN HEAR THE WORLDS BEST SPEAKERS VIA ZOOM MEETINGS. 6792 THE CSSA HOLDS A CONVENTION EVERY OTHER YEAR WHERE MEMBERS ENJOY TALKS BY LEADING SPEAKERS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD.
