1. THE SUBMITTING OF ASSOCIATION NOTICES AND THE APPLICATION PERIOD FOR THE OPERATING GRANT TO END ON MONDAY, 31 MARCH
The submitting of AYY’s association notices and the application period for the operating grant will end within a week on Monday, 31 March at 11.59pm. The application form can be found at:
https://lomake.ayy.fi/yhdistykset/ayyn-toiminta-avustushakemus-2014/. If you have any problems with the form or the application process, if the financial statement of your association is not completed in a timely manner, for example, please contact the organisation specialist (jarjestoasiat@ayy.fi, kati.penttinen@ayy.fi or 050 520 9442). Late applications or unexplained incomplete applications will result in a significant reduction of the allocated amount.
All associations approved in the first list of AYY’s association register may apply for the operating grant. All associations in the list, however, must fill out the association notice. If the association notice is not submitted in two consecutive years, the association may be removed from AYY’s association register.
Please fill out the application carefully and reserve enough time to do it. Further information on the allocated grants is available at /apurahat-yhdistyksille/, which includes the scoring model used for the allocation of the operating grants and the grant amounts allocated in the previous years.
Please remember that the prerequisite for the operating grant is the association profile at AYY.fi, and the associations are responsible for updating their profiles. If you have lost your user name or otherwise need help with updating your profile, you can send e-mail to jarjestoasiat@ayy.fi.
2. RESPOND TO THE ASSOCIATION FACILITY SURVEY
Numerous different associations operate within AYY. Some of these associations use association facilities and the rest would like to have one. Or at least that is what we think in AYY.
However, because belief is not knowledge, we are now reviewing the facility needs and wishes of associations, as well as the use of current facilities. Through the survey, we hope to receive diverse information so that we can take different perspectives into account when considering the use of facilities in the future. We hope to receive answers both from those associations which already use association facilities and those which would like to have one!
Please respond to the survey on behalf of your association at http://lomake.ayy.fi/hallinto/yhdistysten-tilatoiveiden-kartoittaminen
You can respond until Monday, 21 Apr 2014.

3. EARN MONEY FOR YOUR ASSOCIATION BY SELLING TICKETS TO ICE HOCKEY GAME
Finnish Ice Hockey Association offers student organisations the opportunity to earn money by selling student campaign tickets to Euro Hockey Tour Finland-Russia game played at Hartwall Arena on 1 May. May Day is traditionally the students’ festive period. Now you have the opportunity to end your May Day in a sporty and entertaining atmosphere at the last home match of Leijonat before the World Championships in the spring.
Now you have the opportunity to buy tickets at the price of €15/pc (normal price of category C tickets purchased from Lippupiste cost €23.50 (€20 + Lippupiste fee €3.5). Tickets can be sold at the price of €20/pc, for example, when associations make profit and students still get their tickets at lower prices. There are a total of 100 tickets that can be sold at this reduced price. A single organisation can request less tickets or all of them. You do not have to buy tickets in advance: you only pay for the sold ones and you can return unsold tickets. In addition, we offer 50 Leijonat overall badges to speed up your sales.
If you are interested, please contact Event Coordinator Petteri Hietanen (petteri.hietanen@finhockey.fi, tel. 040 596 9660) as soon as possible. Tickets and overall badges are delivered to a provided address. You can sell tickets until 15 Apr, after which you pay for the sold tickets and unsold tickets will be returned to the general sale.
