UGA Parents Leadership Council to accept grant applications from campus organizations

The Parents Leadership Council Grants Program is looking for UGA organizations with a clear commitment to enhancing the undergraduate student experience to apply to receive funding for the 2020-2021 academic year.

Grant applications are due Nov. 12 at 5 p.m. Applications will be accepted from UGA schools, colleges, units, departments, divisions or student organizations registered with the Center for Student Activities and Involvement. Late applications will not be accepted.

“The funding from the Parents Leadership Council helps to keep student ticket prices for performances very low,” said Carlton Bain, director of development for the Performing Arts Center. “This varies the audience of each program presented, in turn enhancing the educational opportunities for the school of music and the general student body.”

Since 2002, the council has funded over $2.5 million in grants to programs such as the Counseling and Psychiatric Services Center at the University Health Center, the Office of the Dean of Students, Designated Dawgs Safe Rides program and Campus Kitchen at UGA.
