Creation of the “Quebec Society for the Protection of Plants Foundation”<\/h3>\n

To celebrate its centenary, the Quebec Society for the Protection of Plants (QSPP) created the Quebec Society for the Protection of Plants Foundation. This Foundation was established to generate annual revenues for the QSPP and to assist the Society in achieving its objectives of creating student scholarships and investing in future generations within the QSPP. \u00a0Donations invested in the QSPP Foundation will generate an additional 8% annual income on top of the initial investment (average of the last 10 years). Therefore, a $1,000 donation to the Foundation will have potentially generated an additional $1,000 income after 12 years.<\/p>\n

The Foundation created is entitled \u201cFonds de dotation de la Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 de protection des plantes du Qu\u00e9bec\u201d (Quebec Society for the Protection of Plants endowment fund) and is administered by the FCGQ (Fondation communautaire du Grand Qu\u00e9bec) that manages hundreds of other Funds such as the United Way Fund (view the complete list at:\u00a0http:\/\/www.fcommunautaire.com. The FCGQ is a non-profit organization whose mission is to guide and help organizations like ours create their own foundations and ensure that they are maintained over time. Donations collected by the QSPP are irreversibly transferred to the FCGQ who manages and grows the fund over time. Revenues are transferred to the QSPP as soon as the value of the Foundation reaches $5,000. The QSPP has 5 years to reach this goal.<\/p>\n

To manage the Foundation of the Quebec Society for the Protection of Plants, the Society created a committee who is responsible for: 1) promoting the Foundation; 2) soliciting donations (through fundraising activities); 3) ensuring that the Foundation\u2019s income is used in compliance with the QSPP Foundation\u2019s objectives. The committee is also allowed to receive proposals for projects or activities that could be funded by the Foundation\u2019s income. In those cases, proposals must be selected that meet the Foundation\u2019s objectives and must be submitted for approval to the QSPP\u2019s Board.<\/p>\n

The objectives of the Quebec Society for the Protection of Plants Foundation are:<\/p>\n

1. Disseminate scientific knowledge concerning plant protection;<\/p>\n

2. Promote networking between people interested in plant protection;<\/p>\n

3. Encourage young scientists who are interested in plant protection;<\/p>\n

4. Promote multidisciplinary research in plant protection.<\/p>\n

Note: Upon request, for donations greater than $5,000, the QSPP Foundation can create a special fund whose income may be used to pay for an activity of the donor\u2019s choice, provided that it respects the objectives of the QSPP Foundation. For example, a scientist could ask for a special fund to be created that would allow\u00a0 graduate students to participate in the QSPP annual meeting.<\/p>\n
