Grants Available from YRUU and the Youth Office
Local Youth Group Project Grants
The 4 Youth Group Project Grants are $500 grants to help local youth groups develop new and innovative programs. The goal of this grant program is support the innovative work that is being done by local youth groups all over the continent. The one requirement of the grant is reporting to the Youth Office that you developed some way to share your project with other youth groups so that they can try to do it as well. Deadline is February 15.
Youth Funding for Unitarian Universalist Development Grants
Youth Funding for Unitarian Universalist Development (Y*FUUD ) is a grant fund for new and developing YRUU programs. Any youth who is doing new and creative programming in their local youth group, district or regional body, or continentally may qualify. New and creative programming that Y*FUUD might fund include creating a conference to address a specific need, developing a resource on a topic currently unaddressed, making a new publication, setting up travel for a youth group, or any other new project idea that Young Religious Unitarian Universalists can come up with. The average Y*FUUD grant is between $500-$1,000. Your application should be typed and is due by July 15.
The YRUU Youth Council will review all applications received. Because of the difficulty in obtaining funding, Youth Council will distribute funds with priority to local, district/regional, and continental programs, in that order. Funding must be used within the same fiscal year. For multi-year projects, Y*FUUD must receive another application and progress report.
