The Clubs Funding Subcommittee was created with the purpose of allocating funds among student organizations that need extra capital for their events. It also supports student groups (a student organization is recognized by the University, a student group is not) should they want to hold an event of their own. The Subcommittee is chaired by a director on the SCSU Board of Directors and is served by the VP Campus Life, VP Students & Equity, and three (3) general students.

Any student organization or group may apply to the Clubs Funding Subcommittee for funding for their event. Below are some guidelines for applications:

• Fill out the Club Event Funding Request Form in full.
• Be sure to tell us as much as you can about other sources of funding for the event.
• Try not to submit very long reports. If possible, submit the application form only.
• Be very detailed about revenues and expenses.
• Once the application has been submitted, be sure to check the email given in the application, as it is the primary means of communication with student organizations and groups.

The Clubs Funding Subcommittee is bound by Policy 3-032. Club executives should familiarize themselves with the policy before submitting applications to the Clubs Funding Subcommittee. The most important points in the policy are as follows:

• Receipts must be submitted after the event has been held.
• If the funding amount exceeds $500, the Subcommittee can only fund 60% of the amount up-front, with the rest being funded upon presentation of receipts.
• Only up to 50% of transportation costs can be covered for up to 100 participants.
• Clubs Funding Subcommittee cannot fund any events that:
  • Involve alcohol consumption off campus.
  • Need audio/visual service or equipment (please use the TV lounge in the Student Centre).
  • Are organized by a Departmental Student Association (DSA).
