Planning for Summer 2026?

Now is the time to start thinking about a Jefferson Trust Major Cycle proposal.

The Major Cycle supports funding requests over $10,000. Letters of Inquiry (LOIs) may be submitted at any time; applicants invited to advance must submit full proposals by July 31, 2026. Early LOI submissions are strongly encouraged to allow time for feedback, refinement, and collaboration.

Visit our Grant Seekers webpage for full details. We like bold, original ideas that create a tangible impact on the student experience, UVA community, or broader society.
