4. Pursue the Remaining Funds.
Although the LEEF grant covers 50% of the cost of the LEEF Ecophysiology package, the remaining cost is the responsibility of the institution. There are several ways to achieve these remaining funds. LEEF awardees have used NSF/CCLI grants, USDA grants, trust fund or regional grants, department funds, start-up funds, president's discretionary funds, institution funds, funds from alumni associations or community groups, and other sources to achieve the remaining balance. Some institutions are able to achieve the funds quickly, while for others it may take 2-3 years to achieve the funds. LI-COR is committed to helping LEEF awardees. If you have been awarded a LEEF grant and are unable to achieve the remaining funds by the purchase deadline, contact LI-COR for an extension. We can work with you to ensure that your LEEF award is available for you when you are ready.
