Funding

Corporate Entities

In order to better assist student organizations that have a need to contact corporate representatives, current contact information can be requested from the ISU Foundation using this form. Some examples of when this form should be submitted include: requesting sponsorship support from local or national organizations, seeking items to give away at an event, or soliciting funds for any purpose. Completed forms can be submitted to the address listed on the form through email or campus mail. To help student organizations better understand this process, the Iowa State University Foundation has put together a Help Sheet that they encourage student organizations to review before submitting a form.

Event Funding Board

The Event Funding Board is an avenue for student organizations to request additional funding to support their upcoming events. Funding priority will be given to events that are brand new, have been significantly enhanced from previous years, attract a broad student body audience, or are being planned by multiple collaborating student organizations.
