The GRC Board of Directors created the Geothermal Resources Council Foundation in 1986. Contributions to the Foundation help ensure future geothermal development through GRC education and information transfer efforts. Last year, the GRC was able to fund GRC's First Student Scholarships with money from the Education Fund and will do so again this year.
The Foundation consists of three specific funds augmented by tax-deductible contributions and interest on principal:
