The future of architecture begins with education, mentorship, and opportunity. Through the work of the AIA New Jersey Educational and Scholarship Foundation, aspiring architects across New Jersey are receiving the support they need to pursue their academic and professional goals.
Support the Foundation’s Goals
The Foundation proudly encourages AIA New Jersey members and supporters to contribute through charitable donations that directly fund scholarships for students and emerging professionals. These scholarships help ease financial burdens, open doors to educational opportunities, and strengthen the future of the profession in our state.
In addition to annual giving, members have the opportunity to establish a Legacy Scholarship — a lasting tribute that honors a colleague, celebrates a distinguished career, or memorializes a loved one. Legacy Scholarships create enduring impact by investing in generations of future architects who will shape our communities for years to come.
The continued generosity of AIA NJ members makes this mission possible. Every contribution helps expand access to architectural education and reinforces the Foundation’s commitment to supporting talent, leadership, and innovation within the profession.
The Foundation is also seeking members interested in becoming more involved through Board service. Serving on the Board is a meaningful way to help guide scholarship initiatives, support students, and contribute to the advancement of architectural education in New Jersey.
For information about Board opportunities, please contact Christina Goldstein at cgoldstein@njpsi.com.
Thank you for your continued support of the AIA New Jersey Educational and Scholarship Foundation and its mission to invest in the next generation of architects.
