During these difficult times, your support is needed more than ever. We take great pride in our stewardship of all donations received by the Foundation. We appreciate the trust you have that your tax-deductible donation to the Foundation's Annual Fund Campaign will not be spent needlessly and without great care.
Through the support of our industry, the Foundation of the Wall and Ceiling Industry continues to fulfill its mission to provide high-quality education, unbiased information and critical financial support to our industry through our three programs: there are three main programs of the Foundation: the Foundation Research Series, John H. Hampshire Memorial Library, and AWCI Cares.
Foundation Research Series
The Foundation Research Series is a series of research papers on topics of interest to the wall and ceiling industry.

John H. Hampshire Memorial Library
The John H. Hampshire Memorial Library is the largest independent
library in the industry. Along with a collection of more than 10,000
reference materials, valuable and historical materials are present.
Many AWCI company representatives visit to conduct business and
historical research for their company and the industry. Some of the
more valuable and important tools includes a complete collection of
periodicals and standards. It is important that we keep this library
as a living resource for us and generations to come.
Helping Good People When Bad Things Happen is the AWCI Cares
initiative. We are making a difference and have awarded nearly
$50,000 in amounts ranging from $4,000 to $8,000 to AWCI families in
financial stress from events like an unexpected death or the burden
of treatment for cancer. As one of our applicants wrote after
receiving a donation:
I would like to thank you on behalf of my
family for the generous donation you have bestowed upon us. I have no
idea how I could have paid the outstanding medical bills without
your help. You will be in our prayers for the helping hand you
extended. We really do appreciate your taking the time to help us out
during our time in need.
100 percent of funds donated to AWCI Cares
go directly to families in need. The application materials are listed below and or more information,
