Students, faculty, and staff: Do you have a great idea and need funds to make it happen? If your project would support students, foster professional/academic growth, or expand an existing campus program, consider applying for a Fund for Mary Washington Impact Grant! Previous grant-funded initiatives include campus composting, summer programs, trolley rides to the polls on Election Day, and an interactive printmaking project.
The application period is now open for grants ranging from $500 to $5,000, funded by donors’ gifts to the Fund for Mary Washington. Grant-funded projects will align with UMW’s ASPIRE values and must be implemented between May 2026 and May 2027. The deadline to apply is February 6, 2026.
Please see the Impact Grants page for requirements, evaluation criteria, FAQs, and the application. Approval from a direct supervisor/faculty sponsor is required to apply. A Zoom information session will be held at 7 p.m. Wednesday, December 3, for anyone interested in learning more.
Please contact Beth Hunsinger ’01, assistant vice president for development and campaign operations, with questions: ehunsing@umw.edu or 540-654-2068.
