Dear Simmons Community:
The Alumnae Association of Simmons College is pleased to offer a third year of Centennial Grants, which will support undergraduate programming on campus. The Simmons College Alumnae Association Centennial Grants were introduced in 2005 in honor of the Association’s 100th anniversary. This year, the grants will fund undergraduate programming that enhances community development and supports the College’s strategic focus and initiatives.
Consideration will be given to applicants whose proposals include innovative events or programming that will enrich the Simmons community and/or that support the Collegeâs strategy to position Simmons as an authority on women, education for the professions, leadership, and diversity.
Eligible participants include individual undergraduate students, undergraduate faculty, and staff; undergraduate student groups (clubs and dorms); undergraduate academic departments; and staff organizations. No more than five grants will be awarded each year and the number of awarded grants will vary based on the quality of applications. The maximum grant award will be $500.
Completed applications must include a two-page cover document, a narrative proposal no longer than two pages, and a detailed budget. Grant applications for second semester must be submitted by October 31, 2007, via email to JVTRealty@aol.com. All grant documents are available online at http://www.alumnet.simmons.edu/olc/pub/SNS/cpages/news.jsp?chapter=1. (A printed “hard-copy” of the completed application packet, including signatures from academic advisors or academic department heads, must also be filed with the Office of Alumnae/i Relations in Room L-405E.)
For more information, contact Sarah Zengo, assistant director in the Office of Alumnae/i Relations, at (617) 521-2112.
We look forward to supporting your proposals and strengthening the relationship with Simmons College.
Sincerely,
Amy L. Klotz ‘96 President, Alumnae Association of Simmons College
