Friends of UNCW Grants
Transforming Ideas Into Impact
Innovation often begins with a simple idea—and the opportunity to bring it to life.
Each year, Friends of UNCW awards microgrants that support creative projects beyond traditional funding sources. These grants help faculty, staff and students launch new initiatives, enhance learning experiences, advance research, enrich the arts and strengthen connections between UNCW and our community.
Since the program began, Friends has invested more than $330,000 in 378 projects, creating opportunities that continue to benefit generations of Seahawks.
