Tomorrow's architects might be right under your nose...smiling as they master geometry...dreaming of one day building to the heavens with steel and concrete...or just learning to color inside the lines. Nurturing and supporting those young minds is the heart of the Wisconsin Architects Foundation (WAF).

Established in 1953, the WAF's primary mission is to enhance the public's awareness of architecture through its commitment to architectural education. From awarding scholarships to Wisconsin architecture students to providing grants for educational programs, the foundation remains steadfast in its belief that building a better Wisconsin starts in the classroom.

Over the last fifty years, that commitment has taken many forms, most notably awarding more than $325,000 in WAF scholarships to Wisconsin architecture students, establishing a School of Architecture & Urban Planning at UW-Milwaukee and, closer to home, restoring the historic Joseph J. Stoner House in Madison, a National Landmark and the current headquarters of the WAF and AIA Wisconsin.

Build Wisconsin's Future

Despite its success, your participation and financial support are needed to continue the important work the WAF does on behalf of the profession. Opportunities are available throughout the year to make regular contributions or memorial gifts, and innovative ideas for contributions are gladly accepted. The WAF is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt entity and gifts are tax deductible to the full extent allowed by law. Contact AIA Wisconsin for more information.
