EAI Financial Aid and Resource Committee (FARC)

---

Financial Aid and Resource Committee (FARC) Mission

Through a thoughtful application and approval process, the FARC evaluates and approves need-based, financial aid requests for FA-EAI members wishing to do service. The goal is to support and encourage the attendance of FA-EAI members at the annual FA World Service Business Convention as well as other service-related activities.   

FARC Activities

• FA Business Convention: provide financial aid to EAI World Service Conference (WSC) members in need of funding to attend the World Service Business Convention. Meetings are asked to elect a World-Service Conference (WSC) Member at their January or February business meeting. 
• EAI Service Support Weekend: provide financial aid to EAI members actively participating in service at the local level who are in need of funding to attend the event.
• Travel Fund Requests: provide funding for EAI members who have been asked to qualify at FA Information Sessions requiring travel.

EAI Service Support Weekend 2024

FA Eastern Area Intergroup (FA-EAI) has money budgeted to support fellows attending the Service Support Weekend who are doing service at the EAI level or during the weekend itself and require funds to assist with travel expenses. We would like to help get you there!

Available funding will depend on the number of submitted application requests that the Financial Aid and Resource Committee (FARC) receives. The FARC will strive to distribute funds to as many fellows as possible. 

The application period ended October 10, 2024. Applicants will hear back by October 17, 2024.
