Dick is correct. The Daphne Osolnik Endowment Fund was set up by AAW and Rude Osolnik in honor of Rude's wife when she passed away. Specified donations and specifically named events fund that account. The general Educational Grant Opportunity account is funded the annual symposium auction. Each year several grants are awarded from each of of these funds.
Specific requirements are in place, including a follow-up report.
A percentage of the grant amount is paid up front, with the remainder being given after the report is received. If I am not mistaken, I don't think grants come from our dues. Thanks for the insight there Bill.
