Mission & Focus Areas
In its 2024 filing, ASTM stated that its mission is to be recognized globally as a leading developer and provider of voluntary consensus standards, technical information, and services that promote public health and safety, support environmental protection and sustainability, contribute to the reliability of materials, products, systems, and services, and facilitate commerce. The organization’s website describes its work as developing standards and delivering tools and services intended to help industries innovate and compete.
ASTM’s 2024 filing describes scholarships for graduate students studying fields related to ASTM’s work and a scholarship for students specializing in cement or concrete materials technology. Its website also describes grants for student design and capstone projects that include an ASTM standards component, and the ASTM Launch program, initiated in 2025, which funds short-term initiatives to advance standards and strategic research and development.
The 2024 grants listed in the filing went to organizations with varied missions. For example, the Conshohocken Free Library describes its mission as providing access to resources for lifelong learning, and Colonial Neighborhood Council says it delivers food and emergency aid in the Colonial School District. Other recipients include organizations whose stated missions involve cancer respite, services for older people, disaster and crisis meals, local fire and rescue, and free air transportation for qualified patients and their families.
Grantmaking
In filing year 2024, ASTM reported 11 grants totaling $223,955. Grant amounts ranged from $7,500 to $69,380, with a median grant of $19,000. All itemized grant purposes were listed as “further orgs mission.”
The largest grants included $69,380 to Conshohocken Free Library & Friends of the Library, $30,000 to Americares Foundation, $21,000 to Colonial Neighborhood Council, $20,000 to Riverbend Environment Education Center, and $19,075 to Kelly A Dolan Memorial Fund.

ASTM’s filing says it awarded four graduate scholarships of $10,000 each and one Katharine and Bryant Mather Scholarship of $7,500 in 2024. Its website describes the graduate scholarship as an annual award for up to four students, subject to merit and available funds, and the Mather Scholarship as contingent on available funds. These scholarships support individual recipients’ education; they are not grants to outside organizations.
The website describes senior design project grants for university students whose projects include an ASTM standards component. The application information calls for an abstract summarizing the project goal, relevant ASTM standards being considered, a statement of intent to submit an application paper for publication, and faculty endorsement. The deadline for the 2026 annual submission is October 31, 2026.
ASTM Launch offers funding for short-term initiatives related to standards and strategic R&D. Its 2025 program schedule listed a September 15 award-notification date, which is a past cycle.
