The Ronald and Jane Olson Endowment for Global Service-Learning is providing support for two service-learning match grants for 2016–2017. Applications are available online and are due Dec. 16, at 8 a.m. Applicants will be notified by Dec. 23 regarding award status.

Match grants will be awarded to student global service-learning projects with faculty/staff support where funds or in-kind donations have been appropriated or raised but where additional funds would be beneficial. The Olson Global Service-Learning Match Grant funds are designated to enhance global service-learning projects by providing additional funds that would otherwise not be accessible.

Requirements:

• Funds or in-kind donations of at least $500 must have already been raised
• Projects must have a strong global service-learning emphasis
• Student applicants must have demonstrated faculty/staff support

Two grants of $500 will be awarded this academic year. Please note that we are NOT able to reimburse for individuals’ mileage.
