Funding Resources
Program Fund
Andrea Gifford, Director of Student and Administrative Support
Services, 581-4031
The Program Fund Committee provides funds for recognized
student groups to sponsor campus-wide events and programs. If your
group has an idea for an event but lack the money to put it on
then these funds are for you! More than $40,000 is available for
program expenses such as speakers, film rental, bands and
musicians, promotion and advertising costs. In addition $23,000 is
available to groups to cover 80% of the expenses associated with
set-up costs provided by University employees and for campus
facility rental. Groups must apply for these funds prior to their
event and present their application to the Program Fund Committee
at one of their meetings.
Applications are due one day prior to the committee's meeting
and can be picked up at the Division of Student Affairs Office or
the Campus Activities and Student Engagement Office in the Memorial Union.
The Program Fund Application can be found here:
