Budget

The VSG Senate has approved our $127,000 budget for the 2026–27 academic year, with over 90% designated for external spending that directly supports Vanderbilt students.

Here’s where some of that funding is going:

• $61,000 for student-facing programming, including co-sponsorships with student organizations, campus-wide events like block parties and food trucks, and the Adriel Bineza GAP Fund.
• $38,000 for VSG committee initiatives and $4,500 for Senate initiatives to support projects developed by VSG’s 10 committees and 18 senators.
• $7,500 for the Activism Fund, which provides registered student organizations with up to $250 per year for eligible activist-related projects and events.
• $5,000 in contingency funding for additional projects, collaborations, and unforeseen expenses with Senate approval.
• $5,000 for operating expenses and $5,500 for internal programming to support VSG’s day-to-day functions and member programming and activities.

VSG’s funding comes from SOLS ($24,000), Housing and Residential Experience ($59,000), and rollover funds from the previous fiscal year ($44,000).
