Creating an Endowed Scholarship

The creation of the scholarship fund program is integral to the long-term investment in the future of the facility management profession. All endowed scholarship conform to the following:

  • Level 1: A minimum contribution of $50,000 (US) to the scholarship fund is required to award an annual $1,500 (US) scholarship. This contribution can be made over a three-year period; once the $50,000 requirement has been met, the sponsor may name the scholarship. At the following World Workplace the $1,500 scholarship will be awarded.
  • Registration and all travel expenses for the students is also paid by the sponsor.
All scholarship sponsors and recipients receive appropriate recognition in IFMA publications, the IFMA Foundation web site and through press releases to the general media and trade press. Scholarship sponsors become part of the overall program by participating in the application review, scholarship recipient selection process and the scholarship awards program at WWP.

IFMA Foundation scholarships are awarded based on merit and certain applicant restrictions and/or qualification requirements may apply.
