Provides support where it’s needed most at SSA.
Donations to the unrestricted General Fund will always be directed to the areas where support is most needed in our Society. In addition to supporting the SSA Annual Meeting, the General Fund has also breathed life into bold new ideas that benefit our entire community. Ideas like The Seismic Record, the Society’s first fully open-access journal, and two grant programs — Global Travel Grants and Community Grants Program — that support members’ initiatives that further our mission to advance seismology.
The gift of scientific progress:
“The SSA Community Grant Program is a valuable resource that has fostered genuine seismological engagement and continues to make dreams a reality,” said Umar Afegbua Kadiri, who used his grant to create a seismological training workshop in Nigeria. The successful event helped inspire new plans for a global earthquake monitoring center—a major milestone for the region.
