Submit Your COINs Event Idea!
BEFORE submitting your idea, please read the following:
Events will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. You must submit your idea at least three weeks before the event is scheduled to take place (ideally submit at least five weeks before).
The total amount will typically not exceed $1,000. If your event incurs costs, please follow UCSF meeting and entertainment expense guidelines. Maximum expenses for food and beverage (including the cost of food and beverages, labor, sales tax, service and delivery charges) are:
- $31 for breakfast
- $54 for lunch
- $94 for dinner
- $22 for light refreshments
While no UC limits have been established for entertainment costs for morale-boosting non-meal activities, costs must be reasonable and typically range up to $50/person. Finally, please be aware that the purchase of alcoholic beverages is restricted -- please contact us prior to submitting your event idea if you plan to purchase alcohol.
When hosting an event, you are expected to:
- Follow CDC guidelines on COVID, including but not limited to social distancing, travel, hand hygiene, and quarantine expectations.
- Follow campus protocols for COVID.
- Maintain the UCSF PRIDE values and Code of Conduct.
- Check your county for more information prior to your event, as Bay Area counties may have differing expectations on COVID protocols.
Post-event: Upon completion of the event, we ask that you submit a short summary (3-5 sentences) with photo(s), which ARCHES may use for promotional purposes. You must submit one original, itemized receipt and a complete list of participants in order to be reimbursed. The receipt must identify both food and beverage charges. Funding for approved activities will be provided by ARCHES; reimbursement will be provided to the host through the ARCHES program.
