Requesting HFSA Co-Sponsorship
About Co-Sponsorships:
In addition to collaborating with our campus community on events and initiatives, HFSA also believes in uplifting our partners’ efforts through financial co-sponsorships. A co-sponsorship is funding for a specific event/function for which HFSA receives a benefit as well as recognition for the co-sponsor. Co-sponsorship amounts will vary depending on the scope and costs associated with the event, as well as available funds in any given year. The average award is $1,000.
HFSA places a high priority on co-sponsoring events that supports the mission of promoting understanding and respect of Hispanic culture on our campus through advocacy, education, and service.
