People's Endowment
The People’s Endowment was established at the UA Foundation in 1986 with the intent to provide a source of funds for projects that will improve UAF but would likely remain unfunded due to institutional priorities. Grants are intended to be used for a special project or to fill a critical need at UAF. Proposals will be accepted from UAF faculty, staff, and students. All proposals will be submitted to the People’s Endowment Board for review and selection.
CALL FOR PROPOSALS
February 22, 2012
The People's Endowment is now calling for grant proposals.
The People's Endowment is pleased to announce that funds are available for award in spring 2013, for projects that do not fit the usual institutional priorities. In the past awards have been granted for diverse ideas from student travel for performances or field work to paying for ice sculptures and other artwork; the PE welcomes original ideas. The endowment does not fund salaries or wages of university personnel.
