All groups that applied for Fall 2024 funding were emailed earlier today, March 25, regarding funding hearing sign-ups. The deadline to sign up for a slot is Monday, April 8, 11:59 p.m., HST. All funding hearings will be conducted online via Zoom. Upon selecting a time slot, the SAPFB office will email you a unique Zoom meeting room URL within 24-48 hours.
Funding hearings are ONLY required for event requests greater than or equal to $1,500 (Macro Event Request). However, groups who still wish to attend a funding hearing with the SAPFB Board may do so. Groups that have submitted Macro Event Requests but do not sign up or attend a funding hearing will be considered for funds not exceeding $1,500 per event. Therefore, we strongly encourage groups to sign up as soon as possible to ensure their applications are fully considered.
What to expect during your 15-minute hearing if you only have ONE event:
- 5 minutes to present your submitted PowerPoint
- 5 minutes for Q&A with board members
- 5 minutes set up/next group to come in
- You WILL NOT get more than 5 minutes to present, even if there is leftover time
What to expect during your 15-minute hearing if you have MORE THAN ONE event:
- 10 minutes to present your submitted PowerPoint presentation
- 5 minutes for Q&A with board members
You may access the link to sign up for a funding hearing via the email sent to your inboxes.
Any questions or concerns may be directed to the SAPFB Board at sapfb2@hawaii.edu and SAPFB Assistants at sapfb@hawaii.edu.
Warmest regards,
The Student Activity and Program Fee Board
