The Geological Society of Maine (GSM) is pleased to grant funding to support educational
programs through the Walter Anderson Fund. GSM will award grants of up to $1,000 to help

and of the modern geologic processes which affect the Maine landscape and the human
environment;
• Developing and encouraging continuing social contact and dialogue among geologists
working in Maine;
• Advancing the professional improvement of its members; and
• Informing interested persons of current and planned geologic programs in Maine.
