PLLC Student Clubs Sponsored by TELUS

PLLC Student Clubs Sponsored by TELUS is a University-wide program operated by the Peter Lougheed Leadership College (PLLC) to support undergraduate leadership initiatives across the University of Alberta.

To foster leadership development and facilitate collaboration among students from different academic backgrounds, funds from the TELUS donation to the PLLC will be transferred to student-led clubs in various faculties across the University of Alberta campuses that are engaged in leadership activity.

Broadly defined, this might include the active leadership of their own club executive and members as they engage in their club activities, or the active teaching and learning about leadership.

These student clubs, and their interaction, will provide practical opportunities for emerging leaders to enhance their skills and engage in interdisciplinary collaborative projects with their peers.

The PLLC is committed to using the TELUS funding to establish and maintain student clubs and their networks, providing our students with face-to-face experiential learning opportunities and a sense of community while creating social impact.

To qualify, student clubs must meet the following criteria:

  • Registered with their campus student association (e.g., UASU and Augustana Student Association
  • Club bank account into which funding can be deposited
  • Statement of values, vision, and mission

In August of each year funded clubs will be asked to provide a few paragraphs describing their funded activities and a picture of a funded club event that will be included in the PLLC's annual report to TELUS. Clubs may apply in September for funding of their September to August activities.  

Apply for Funding

Undergraduate student clubs interested in applying for this funding may contact pllc@ualberta.ca to arrange a meeting between the PLLC Director and Club Executives.

Consideration for funding will be based on the student groups' leadership initiatives as well as funding capacity available at the time of application. Funding for clubs is decided on an annual basis.
