2017-18 FAB Event Grant

Guidelines and Instructions

Grant applications must be submitted fourteen (14) days before the event starts AND at least four (4) working days before a FAB meeting. Applications should be turned into the ASFLC/FAB office (SU 167) or the Leadership Center (SU 171) by Wednesday at 5:00pm. A representative of the RSO will be invited via email to attend a FAB Meeting, Tuesday, 5:15 pm in the Student Senate Chambers room in the Student Union (SU 163).

Grants up to $500 may be approved through FAB. Requests for more than $500 will require additional ASFLC Senate approval and an additional week for consideration.

The Student Activity Fee collected from students supports the Event Grants. Illustrating to the Financial Allocation Board (FAB) how your event or program benefits the Fort Lewis College student body and campus community is strongly recommended. You will be required to attend a FAB meeting and present your grant proposal in person. Contact Jacob Wolfe, FAB Director, with any questions at or visit the ASFLC office, 167 Student Union.

The latest date to submit this application for consideration during the 2016-2017 academic year will be March 23rd, 2018.

Event grants can cover events lasting more than one day.

THE PROCESS

FAB is composed of students and meets weekly during the regular academic year.

Once your application is submitted, you must plan to attend the FAB meeting to which you are invited. You should be prepared to give a brief summary of your proposal. If you do not appear to present your proposal it will not be considered. A brief question and answer period will follow your summary. FAB will later vote on your proposal. You are welcome to stay for the discussion but cannot participate in the debate unless invited by FAB members.

If the amount approved by FAB exceeds $500, the ASFLC Senate must also approve it. Senate meets Wednesday nights at 7:00pm in the Senate Chambers. There is a one week delay due to Senate agenda requirements.

Once your grant proposal is approved, funds will be transferred to your college account. Funds may not be deposited into any other account.

DO NOT commit nor spend any funds prior to your grant approval, as FAB and ASFLC will not reimburse if the event grant is denied.

After the Event:

An Event Grant Evaluation form and your updated financial report MUST be completed and returned to the FAB mailbox located in the Leadership Center no later than seven (7) working days after the event ends. Failure to do so could result in loss of funding during this fiscal year.

THIS APPLICATION IS FOR EVENTS ONLY.

A SEPARATE TRAVEL GRANT FORM IS AVAILABLE ON THE LEADERSHIP CENTER WEBSITE.
