IU Student Foundation Metz Grant

The Indiana University Student Foundation is proud to announce the Metz Grant for IU student organizations seeking financial support for a philanthropic cause.

Funding for the Metz Grant Program comes from the Arthur R. Metz Philanthropic Opportunity Fund and is administered through the IUSF Special Events Committee. The Metz Grant Program will annually award $50,000 in grant money; $25,000 in the fall and $25,000 in the spring.

Metz Grants are available to IU student organizations that are registered through the Student Activities Office. Applicants must demonstrate a need for financial support for a philanthropic cause. If your organization is not registered through the SAO, you may apply for official recognition through the SAO website.

There are five categories under which each applicant can register: Campus Diversity, Local, State, National, or International. Organizations may apply for amounts up to $5,000. Ten finalists will be required to make a presentation to the selection committee.
