ILE's Cowan-Turner Program in Servant Leadership invites applications for Bradley-Turner funds from students seeking co-curricular experiences consistent with increasing capacity for servant leadership.
The primary purpose of the Bradley-Turner Servant Leadership funds is to expand the practice and understanding of servant leadership. While community service and volunteer efforts are important to this process, the critical focus of servant leadership is to enhance the capacity of institutions to better serve the needs of their constituents. Proposals for funding must demonstrate that the projects address this point and/or provide an opportunity for participants to develop the skills and capacities necessary for this purpose. A secondary purpose of this fund is to create opportunities to increase the awareness, understanding, and practice of servant leadership within the Georgia Tech community.

All proposals will be assessed in terms of SMART: Specific, Measurable, Attainable and Time oriented. Recipients can be students, student organizations, or others who will provide co-curricula programs and/or experiences for students.
