Non-Alcoholic Alternative Community Event
Grant
The grant program is currently under review. Please visit this page for further updates.
Dear Applicant:
The Community Coalition on Alcohol
Abuse would first like to thank you for your interest in sponsoring
a non-alcoholic event. This year,
CCAA will be awarding grants to student organizations which will
provide funding for non-alcoholic events. Local high schools and universities/colleges
are encouraged to apply. The focus
of the grant is to keep the youth population (16 to 21 years) from
participating in high risk activities that involve alcohol
use. The guidelines of the grant
are as follows:
• Grants will be
awarded as a reimbursement to the event.
• Grants will be
awarded in the amount of up to $250 each.
• Organizations
may apply for additional funding, depending on the event. If so, additional requirements may be
imposed by the CCAA before any additional funding is
awarded.
• The event must
obtain approval of the school or university/college.
• The event must
obtain the approval of the organization's faculty/staff
advisor.
• Event must be
marketed as being co-sponsored by the organization and by the
CCAA.
• The CCAA banner
must also be on display at the event, and handouts must be
available to all attendees1.
The application must be completed
sixty days prior to the event. All
applications will be reviewed during the following month's CCAA
meeting for approval. Applications
must explain how the event will be marketed. The application is
two-pages in length, and it attached to this letter. If you need additional information, please
