Campus Election Engagement Project Grants

In partnership with author Paul Loeb, the Campus Election Engagement Project, and Ohio Campus Compact, we are offering grants of up to $1,000 to support nonpartisan election engagement efforts on Indiana Campus Compact partner campuses.

These grants will offset the costs associated with events and projects that help our partner campuses motivate their students to register, volunteer in campaigns, educate themselves, and turn out at the polls.

Faculty, staff, and students may apply and successful applications will reflect project that 1.) inform, mobilize, and engage students in the voting and election process; and 2.) include a community engagement component that reaches beyond the campus and connects students with the local community.

Applications due September 16, 2016.

Funds are awarded on a reimbursement basis only. Funds may be used for voter engagement projects occurring on or after September 23, 2016, and through November 9, 2016. All funds must be spent by November 9, 2016.
