Story

Board of Advisors Challenge

Special thanks to Board of Advisors members Donna Flynn, Arlene Harris and Marty Cooper (EE '50, MS '57), Eric Larson, Jenny Niemann, Brandon Schauer (MDes '05), Jai Shekhawat, Brianna Sylver-Galvao (MDes '03), and Brian Walker for their gifts!

Why support the Institute of Design on Giving Day?

Support ID students’ education in this rapidly changing environment. Your gifts allow tomorrow’s leaders to learn new ways forward, regardless of financial limitations. Together we can continue to build an ID community with a range of backgrounds, interests, and strengths.

We need to empower these bright new leaders because change never ends. These students are the design-driven difference makers of tomorrow who greet today’s challenges and find opportunities in them that unlock a brighter future for us all.
