Funding

---

IOCD partly funds its operating expenses and some of its initiatives from a small endowment built up over the years by the dedicated and astute management of IOCD's finances by Elkan Blout, who served as Vice President and Treasurer of the organization from its founding until 2006.

IOCD solicits funding from other organizations to fund most of its initiatives. We gratefully acknowledge past support from the following sources:

• American Chemical Society
• American Chemistry Council
• Aventis Foundation
• German Chemical Society
• International Council for Science (ICSU)
• International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC)
• MacArthur Foundation
• Novartis Foundation for Sustainable Development
• Royal Society of Chemistry
• UNESCO
• US Environmental Protection Agency
• US Food and Drug Administration
• US National Academy of Sciences
• US National Science Foundation
• UN Population Fund
• various countries

IOCD welcomes donations from public and private sources throughout the world to enable it to continue its important work. To find out more about contributing to IOCD, visit the Supporting IOCD page.
