Student project funding

Looking for funding for a project?

If you have an idea for a great project and are looking for funding, check out our YuFund and YuStart schemes. They are funded through the generosity of alumni from University of York and offer you the chance to access much-needed funds to get your project off the starting blocks.

YuFund

YuFund offers grants to developmental and community projects run by student clubs and societies, departments and colleges. There are two application rounds - in autumn and summer.

YuStart

YuStart is the University’s crowdfunding platform. It helps you raise money for your project and allows donors to connect with your campaign and receive small rewards for their support.

Sustainable Development Grant

The York SU Sustainable Development Grant offers funding for projects or initiatives that address at least one of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Applications are reviewed once every two months.
