2011 Calendar
|
The
ASIS Foundation Board of Trustees met last month in Dallas
during Seminar. The group completed a thorough review
of all Foundation programs and financials. Due to decreases
in donations from all sources, the Board has opted to
limit or suspend the Foundation's programs. As such, the
following changes have been made:
- "The
Alan Cross Awards will be given to the first 20 complete
applications received starting January 1, 2011
- The
Timothy Walsh Award will be given out just one time
in 2011 for the APC I course offered in November of
2011
- The
Roy Bordes Award will cover a set amount of the expenses
for a customized, physical security program
- Foundation
matching scholarships will be limited to 30 and given
to the first complete applications received before
November 30.
- No
awards will be carried over into another fiscal year
and all must be completed within the award year
The
attached
Foundation calendar for 2011 will help guide your
planning and transition strategies for the coming year
as new leaders step into their roles. Please forward
this on to your scholarship chair, Foundation representative
and any other officers who regularly communicate with
your membership.
The
ASIS Foundation Board plans to increase our fundraising
efforts and outreach to the security community. Your
help in this effort will be greatly appreciated as we
work towards expanding our activities and impact as
an organization. We thank the 19 chapters who have already
made a donation to the Foundation this year - to see
