IEEE R10 Student Activities Committee (SAC) is inviting proposals for the following two funding calls:

·         IEEE R10 SAC 2021 Student Branch Membership Development and Leadership Training Fund; and
·         IEEE R10 SAC 2021 Special Call For Proposals Related To COVID-19

IEEE R10 SAC Student Branch Membership Development and Leadership Training (SBMDLT) Fund is created to persuade sections/student branches to organize events for training on leadership, successful execution of student branch programs and to run membership drives, aiming to enhance student membership number and its retention.

In addition, this fund also aims to assist the revitalization of in-need student branches.

The fund shall also be used for events involving at least 2 student branches, one that is currently inactive or under probation and another that is highly active/vibrant.

This may give the inactive SB members a chance to understand the processes of successfully conducting events and how to maintain and keep a student branch active in the long run by emulating a highly successful SB.

This shall help to improve the overall membership count. Each selected project will be funded a maximum of US$ 400 in accordance with Region 10 Matching Fund policy
