Funding
Requests for programming funds are reviewed and decided upon by PAACH Staff.

Funding priority is given to University of Pennsylvania student organizations for activities that:

• Educate the general Penn community about the diversity and richness of Asian American and Pacific Islander experiences

• Foster participation in Asian American and Pacific Islander cultural, political, academic, leadership and community service activities

Co-sponsorship support is determined on the basis of program merit, demonstrated need and availability of resources at the time of the request. Potential co-sponsors must provide a rationale for seeking funds and explain the potential benefit(s) derived from PAACH funding support. In addition, a detailed program budget must be submitted, which outlines specifically how PAACH co-sponsorship funds will support the program (complete the "PAACH Co-Sponsorship Request" form).

Review Process
Requests for PAACH Programming Funds in the range of $50-$100 should be made at least two (2) weeks in advance of the program date. Please note that the request review process is ongoing, but co-sponsorship proposals that are submitted at the beginning of the academic year or in the early weeks of the Fall or Spring semester will have a much better chance of receiving support. All co-sponsorship requests should be submitted to Dr. June Chu, PAACH Director. Final reimbursement will occur only with the submission of receipts.

Funding Policy

• Revenue generating programs are not eligible for funding
