The WSST Foundation's goal is to improve science education in Wisconsin by providing funds and guidance to the members of WSST.

The Foundation serves the members of WSST through:

• grants and scholarships
• sponsoring retired WSST members activities
• sponsoring events such as Science Congress

The Foundation's funds are separate from WSST and can not be used for the operation of the Society. It provides the money required to help make the goals of our parent organization, WSST, within reach of every member through:

• member contributions, memorials, and bequeathals
• fund raisers
• corporate support

All members of the Foundation Committee are appointed by the president of WSST and serve for longer periods than regular committee members. This enables the members to develop contacts with corporate sponsors.
