[Histmaj] LAST CALL: Husky Seed Fund applications close March 28, 2023

[HISTORY UNDERGRADUATE ADVISORS]

Hello, Advisers,


I'm writing on behalf of the Provost's Husky Experience Student Advisory Council to ask for your continued help getting the word out to undergraduate, graduate and professional students from UW's three campuses to apply for the Husky Seed Fund<https://www.washington.edu/strategicplanning/husky-seed-fund/>. Successful applicants will be awarded up to $5000.



Created by students for students, the fund supports innovative ideas that will enhance the UW student experience. For projects to be considered, they need to be impactful, inclusive, and inventive. A previously funded project which has received statewide and nationwide recognition is the Indigenous Walking Tour.<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.dailyuw.com/arts_and_culture/art/uw-undergrad-creates-indigenous-walking-tour/article_f6063184-0f91-11ec-8be5-e380c8575338.html__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!jjY4RUCDQrL3uLjJwHAinpHSUObj0HG5e8roVpvXwiyOsc7AtHKJo76k6N_qsWJjUg5C9zCMKcJuGbmNtXsDBw$>



We are also proud to support the 2022 winners:

  *   Huskies for Housing: Illuminating the daily experiences of those living unhoused.
  *   Youth Lead Youth: Examining how race influences healthcare.
