Each year the ASCLS Political Action Committee (PAC) holds a challenge to constituent societies and regions to raise funds for the PAC to support activities in the government arena in order to promote governmental policies favorable to clinical laboratory science.

Award:

The constituent society which raises the highest amount of funds (per active membership) in the past Society year (August 1 of prior year to May of current year) will be acknowledged at the ASCLS Annual Meeting Awards Ceremony with a plaque. Second and third place winners may be awarded plaques as deemed appropriate. Regional winners are announced at the House of Delegates at the ASCLS Annual Meeting.

Deadline: May 15

Application: No application is required. Fundaising totals are automatically calculated based on the mailing address of all PAC donors throughout the year.
