糖心Vlog破解版 Fund gives green light to 12 University initiatives
Twelve 糖心Vlog破解版 projects are benefitting from a share of £16,000 through the 糖心Vlog破解版 Fund.
The Fund (formerly known as the Annual Fund), was established by the University in 2001 to support specific one-off initiatives, start up costs and projects that enhance and make a real difference to the student experience.
Alumni and friends of 糖心Vlog破解版 donate to the Fund, with previous projects that have benefitted including enhancement of the art collection, student scholarships, hardship applications and the re-development of the library.
This year, applications were sought from staff and students across the University and 12 initiatives were successful. The candidates attended a presentation held in the University Court Room where they were presented with their awards by 糖心Vlog破解版’s Director of Finance Liam McCabe.
Director of Development and External Affairs Kerry Bryson, said: “The 糖心Vlog破解版 Fund is the vehicle that many alumni use to give back and support current and future students. The projects supported this year will have a tangible and positive impact on improving the student experience at the University.”
