Here is an announcement from the California Lichen Society (CALS)
about their Grants Program.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
California Lichen Society Grants Program
Applications due October 1
The California Lichen Society offers small grants to support research
pertaining to the lichens of California. No geographical constraints
are placed on grantees or their associated institutions. The grant
application process is very straightforward; except for the letter of
support, it is possible to complete an application in two hours or
less. Required information includes project title, description, time
frame, budget, academic status, etc.
Applications are reviewed anonymously by members of the grants
committee based on completeness, technical quality, consistency with
CALS goals, intended use of funds, and likelihood of completion. Grant
proposals received by October 1 each year will be considered for that
year's grant cycle. Usually, two grants are awarded to separate
individuals, however during some years both grants are awarded to one
person. All grants are partially dependent on member contributions,
therefore the amounts of these awards may vary from year to year. This
year the total amount of grants to be awarded is $1750.
The application instructions can be read online or downloaded from

Obligations of recipients: 1) Acknowledge the California Lichen
Society in any reports, publications, or other products resulting from
the work supported by CALS. 2) Submit an article to the Bulletin of
the California Lichen Society. 3) Submit any relevant rare lichen data
to California Natural Diversity Data Base using NDDB’s field survey
forms. Please email submissions or questions to the committee Chair at
gra...@californialichens.org <mailto:gra...@californialichens.org> by
October 1 of the current calendar year. The grants Chair is Tom Carlberg.
