AATCC Foundation 100 for 100 Campaign
RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., USA, January 14, 2020 — In November 2021, AATCC will celebrate its 100th anniversary! To mark this auspicious occasion, AATCC Foundation launched the 100 for 100 Endowment Campaign with the goal of endowing scholarships and fellowships worth at least $100,000 per year.
Beginning this January, the first 100 individual donors who contribute $100 or more to AATCC Foundation will receive a beautiful gold AATCC Foundation pin in appreciation of their donation.
Donate online at www.aatcc.org/fnd/donate. You can contribute to the general Foundation fund or specify a scholarship to support.
Donations to the Connelly/Perkins and the Grady, Hauser, Houser, Daniels Graduate Fellowships will be matched through May 31, 2020. Donations to these fellowships make twice the impact!
AATCC Foundation encourages and supports students pursuing programs and degrees towards careers in textile-related fields. Support includes undergraduate scholarships, graduate fellowships, and research grants in design, merchandising, textile chemistry, material science, and other related fields. Students can apply for more than 15 different scholarships from one simple online application.
Celebrate the rich history of AATCC and the textile industry by supporting the future. Donate to AATCC Foundation and wear your pin proudly.
