Grants can be an integral part of improving the strength and quality of PVCC by funding projects that allow PVCC to meet its mission to prepare students for transfer to four-year institutions or for high-demand careers that support the region's economy. Recently funded projects demonstrate that grant funding can:
- Attract and retain new students, faculty, and staff
- Upgrade current programs, equipment, and facilities
- Provide new educational opportunities and resources
- Promote and enhance diversity and accessibility
- Expand services and activities provided to the community
- Continue the PVCC quest to become a world-class institution
PVCC is particularly committed to pursuing grants to fund those projects that will accomplish the college's short- and long-term strategic initiatives and institutional priorities and that meet PVCC's overall mission to provide accessible, quality education to the citizens of Charlottesville and Albemarle, Buckingham, Fluvanna, Greene, Louisa, and Nelson counties.
The purpose of this Web page and the Grants Office is to assist faculty and staff in developing grant proposals that will succeed in procuring institutional grant funding.
(Pursuit of professional development or other grants for individuals will remain the responsibility of those individuals, but please contact the Grants Office for consulting and referral services and to share a final copy of your proposal for the PVCC grants archive.)
