The UWF National Alumni Association Board of Directors established its alumni grant program in 1999 to benefit special projects and provide funds to student organizations and faculty for educational opportunities that fulfill the university's mission.

On an annual basis, the board of directors decide on the total amount of grant monies that will be disbursed from income generated through its revenue programs. At the discretion and vote of the board, money from the income accounts may be used in several ways:

• Fund Alumni Scholarship Endowment
• Fund New Endowments

Funding for endowment-related projects may be allocated in several ways:

• Awards for "seed" money to cover postage and printing for the purposes of creating and/or building endowments
• Matching gifts based on agreement between alumni board and the organization or individual creating the endowment
• Fund one-time special projects or grants
• Funding for one-time special projects or grants will be reviewed by a committee and must meet stated criteria and funding guidelines

An application package will be required of the person(s) and organization(s) requesting funding.  A committee consisting of alumni board of directors and alumni relations staff will review requests on a quarterly basis.
