Foundation

The IIDA Foundation is a not-for-profit 501(c)3 philanthropic organization whose primary mission is to advance Interior Design through education, research, and knowledge to benefit IIDA and the Interior Design profession.

The Foundation, under the guidance of its Board of Trustees, works in collaboration with IIDA to support the strategic plan of the Association.

2017 Designing for the Future Campaign  

This year’s campaign will begin Tuesday, September 12 and continue through Friday, November 17.

The funds raised from the 2017 campaign will support two initiatives. Due to requests from many members, the funds raised from this year’s campaign will again be directed to the NCIDQ Tuition Reimbursement Fund. To date, 154 members from 28 chapters have received financial assistance from the Foundation upon passing the exam.

In addition, this year, the Trustees have also added a new initiative to sponsor five IIDA Student Members for an all-expenses-paid trip to the 2018 IIDA Texas Oklahoma Chapter’s Student Conference, Jan. 31 - Feb. 2. For each chapter that meets its 2017 goal, they will be able to nominate two IIDA Students for a chance to attend.

The Trustees of the IIDA Foundation are sincerely grateful to the IIDA Members and Chapters for their ongoing and constant support of this annual campaign.

Members can make their tax-deductible contribution in one of the following ways:

• By logging in and making their contribution online
• By adding their contribution to their 2018 membership dues invoice

Non-members are welcome to contribute here.
