Student Group Grants

This form should be used by UVA student groups and community members to request funds from The Serpentine Society. When completing this form, please be aware that requests are evaluated and awarded monthly and funds can take 2-3 weeks to process and disburse. We review student group grant requests on a rolling basis.

Does your organization have a UVA fund account, an outside bank account, or will the funds be sent to a personal account?*
Please provide a breakdown of your funding request (i.e., what will the money be used for?). Please be as specific as possible with which vendors you have talked with for each quote. Please also send any quotes you've received directly to Student Affairs Committee Chair Blake@SerpentineSociety.org.*
If you have run this event in the past, please tell us how it went, and any noteworthy changes that will be made this time.*
Are you expecting to get money from other sources? If so, which ones? (If you are a CIO, please include amounts requested and given from Student Council)*
How will you recognize the Serpentine Society's contribution? Creativity is welcome here, but common options include putting our logo on event materials and making a call out during the event.*
How will you encourage inclusivity and intersectionality (particularly if your event is not exclusively LGBTQ+ focused)?
This question is optional.
As a student group, you will often be able to receive significant discounts on location rental, food purchases, and other event expenses. Have you already asked your vendors for a discount as a non-profit student group?*
