About the Special Projects Fund
The Special Projects Fund is a limited amount of money set aside to fund projects that do not fall into the other categories. Projects should be of academic or social value to graduate students at Concordia, and should respect the goals of the GSA as expressed in the Bylaws.

Examples of what will not be covered:
