The SOT Endowment Fund has a mission of assisting in advancing the science of toxicology by providing financial support for the Society’s programs. Contributors to the SOT Endowment Fund are helping to build for the future of toxicology through long-term financial support, which also generates critical resources that enable the Society to fulfill its mission, now and in years to come.
Since its inception in 2006, Contributors to the Endowment have been instrumental in achieving the following:
- Underwritten more than 100 Student Travel Awards to the SOT Annual Meeting.
- Recognized colleagues who have made enormous contributions to improving human health and the environment.
- Created funds that acknowledge the contributions of educators in toxicology to undergraduate students in toxicology and toxicology-related areas.
- Strengthened global participation by providing financial support to scientists from developing countries to attend the SOT Annual Meeting.
The vision for the SOT Endowment Fund is to establish and increase in net worth a set of Endowment Funds that will provide significant, stable, long-term financial support that complements the Society’s revenue from dues and other sources, to aid in achieving the Society’s strategic objectives.
