This purpose of this application is for affiliated Clubs and Associations of the Flinders University Student Association to request additional funding for events, activities, equipment and resources (collectively referred to in this application as "Projects"). Please note that only clubs & associations who are currently approved for Financial Affiliation or who are an approved Academic Association of FUSA should apply. 

Each application may only request funding for a single purpose or activity. For example expenses relating to a 'Student Ball' event must be listed in a separate application to expenses relating to a series of weekly ‘Movie Night’ events. For another example (for equipment and resources), expenses relating to the purchase of gardening supplies must be listed in a separate application to expenses relating to cooking utensils. 

Before submitting this application, please ensure that:

• The club/association has current Financial Affiliation or is an approved Academic Association with FUSA

• The project directly relates to the Club/Association's aims and objectives (as listed within its approved Constitution)
