AFA Foundation Grants

Mission

The Association of Fraternity/Sorority Advisors Foundation’s giving mission is to provide ongoing financial support and resources in an effort to aid the Association of Fraternity/Sorority Advisors in the fulfillment of its educational objectives.

Priorities

In keeping with this mission, the Association of Fraternity/Sorority Advisors Foundation shall give preference to educational (scholarships, fellowships, professional development) grant requests from the Association of Fraternity/Sorority Advisors or organizations that are collaborating with AFA. Consideration will also be given to grant requests from other individuals and organizations that further this mission.

Schedule

The Association of Fraternity/Sorority Advisors invites faculty, staff, and graduate students to submit grants for consideration for funding. Preference will be given to projects that are innovative and closely aligned to our strategic research aims.

Guidelines

  • Activities supported by grants and program-related investments must be educational or scientific, as defined under the appropriate provisions of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and Treasury Regulations.
  • Grants are available for both members and non-members of the Association of Fraternity/Sorority Advisors.
  • Individual grants may not be given to members of the Association of Fraternity/Sorority Advisors Foundation board.
  • Grants may not be used for undergraduate purposes.
  • Recipients may not receive grants two years in a row, other than on-going annual contributors as determined by the board.
  • The duration of a grant is for one year.
  • All funds which are not spent at the end of the grant term must be returned to the Association of Fraternity/Sorority Advisors Foundation.
  • Because its funds are limited in relation to the great number of worthwhile proposals received, the Association of Fraternity/Sorority Advisors Foundation directs its support to activities that are within its current interest and are likely to have wide effect.
