Scholarship Fund

NOMA|nw is proud to announce that the Chapter has started a Sustaining Scholarship Fund*. Thanks to Scholarship Fund seed money provided by a few of our esteemed Sustaining Sponsors this past year, NOMA|nw is able to provide scholarships for College students to aid them in their studies at Universities in the Pacific Northwest. Students will need to demonstrate financial need, with the scholarship going towards architecture studio supplies, healthy meals for a semester, and other non-housing and non-tuition living expenses.

The Scholarship Fund is ongoing* and independent of the organization’s annual Sustaining Sponsorship. Sustaining Sponsorship is instrumental in the organization’s ability to continue producing and participating in core programs and initiatives, such as Project Pipeline and student outreach, the Call-to-Action, Member Engagement, and other professional growth initiatives.

Help NOMA Northwest continue to fund our Scholarship Fund!

Scholarship Fund-Fundraiser Contribution Levels:

NOMA NW Board and Chapter Members are volunteers who donate their time and expertise to community outreach and the continued growth of the Northwest Chapter. All proceeds go to the planning and execution of community programs and initiatives, and the Chapter’s annual operational expenses. NOMA NW is a 501(c)(6) non-profit organization, under the NOMA National 501(c)(3) umbrella. Contributions made directly to our local Chapter for local-based initiatives are not tax deductible.

For tax deductible donations, please indicate this preference on the application form under “Additional Information”. Your donation will be redirected to NOMA National in Washington DC to be used towards broader programs at the national level. Please note that contributions made at the national level may not directly support local Seattle-based programs and initiatives.

*NOMA|NW will/has invested the money with help from our financial advisors into the mutual funds to create a sustaining scholarship that will grow over time, the interest will be given out to allow the principal to continue to grow. The fund can fluctuate with market conditions but we are utilizing a more conservative approach to investing.
