About the Fund
______
The Fund for Free Expression and Viewpoint Diversity was established to support programs and organizations across the University of Virginia that actively promote the values of viewpoint diversity, free speech, free inquiry, critical thinking, and intellectual humility — cornerstones of a vibrant academic community.
Founded in partnership with the UVA Alumni Association and managed by the UVA Fund, the Fund for Free Expression and Viewpoint Diversity reflects a deep institutional commitment to fostering open dialogue and robust debate on Grounds. Its support enables initiatives like Think Again to provide students with opportunities to engage across lines of difference, challenge assumptions, and grow into thoughtful, articulate citizens.
Need Help Getting Your Message Out?
The Fund for Free Expression and Viewpoint Diversity at UVA exists to support student organizations at the University of Virginia that promote viewpoint diversity, free speech, free inquiry, critical thinking, and intellectual humility. The Fund is strictly nonpartisan and does not endorse any political party or candidate.
​
Student organizations may apply for financial assistance for programs and activities that advance these values in a creative and positive way. Each application is reviewed based on its connection to and ability to further the Fund's goals. Organizations may submit multiple requests, but approval of one does not guarantee approval of others. The Fund also reserves the right to decline funding for activities that duplicate the efforts of already-supported organizations. All funding decisions rest solely in the Fund's discretion.
​
Requests for funding will not be considered for alcohol, partisan political activities, or promotional items and materials that do not align with the Fund's mission. All recipients are required to submit a follow-up report describing how the funds were spent and evaluating the outcomes of the supported activities.
