Annual Trust Gala Sponsorship Opportunities

Your corporate and individual contributions help fund scholarships for students studying toward careers in the deep foundations, architecture, engineering and construction industries. There are a variety of sponsorship levels to suit every corporate budget, in addition to tax-deductable donations accepted in any amount.

Any unused tickets from sponsorships will be donated to local faculty and students.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, contributions to the DFI Educational Trust are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.
