SLU OFFERS FUNDING FOR ALCOHOL-FREE EVENTS

CANTON – Funding is available through St. Lawrence University for events 
that assist in efforts to reduce alcohol use and represent collaborations 
between the University and the local community.
      In its ongoing effort to reduce alcohol use, especially high-risk 
alcohol use, on the St. Lawrence campus, the University's Wellness Initiative 
sponsors two funds for alcohol-free events – the St. Lawrence University 
Alcohol-Free Event Fund and the Campus-Community Alcohol-Free Event Fund. 
Funding is through a "mini-grant" process.
      Both funds are available to any St. Lawrence student, student group, 
faculty member or staff member.  The St. Lawrence University Alcohol-Free 
Event Fund is intended to fund events for the campus community, while the 
Campus-Community Alcohol-Free Event Fund is designated for events that 
represent collaborations between the University community and the Canton 
community.
      Grants will be awarded in amounts ranging up to $300 per event and 
applications should be submitted at least 14 days prior to the proposed 
event. Applications are available by contacting Director of Counseling 
Services William Burns, St. Lawrence University, 23 Romoda Drive, Canton, 
NY 13617; by phone, at 315-229-5391; or by e-mail at wburns@stlawu.edu.
