Objective for the programme
Sit aims to support student activities in Gjøvik, Ålesund and Trondheim. Through the sponsorship programme we will work together with student organisations to promote a volunteer culture among the students. The sponsorship programme is also intended to increase the students’ awareness of who we are and what we do. A sponsorship agreement confers both obligations and benefits on each party. The student organisations receive financial support from Sit, while providing services in return that benefit Sit.
Who is eligible for support?
What is supported?
The guidelines for the sponsorship program make assumptions for what kind of purpose / expenses / purchases are supported. Here, however, it is necessary to make considerations, as the funds distributed are limited to 1.5 million in the three cities, and every year much more is sought. Some expenses are not always directly outside the guidelines, but are low priority, especially to ensure equal application processing for all organizations.
The following entries are not supported according to the guidelines:
