Symposiums, grants, and research

The Society for News Design Foundation is the non-profit research and main education effort of SND.

The foundation has joined forces with SND's Education Committee to provide travel grants for students to Quick Course sites and provide workshop grants to the student designers of the year. The Foundation seeks grants to support the following activities:

• Partnerships with news organizations to provide faculty, support, and instructional materials for training programs that prepare minorities for jobs in newspaper design and new media.
• Symposiums are again planned on key issues in design and journalism. In January of 1999, the Foundation sponsored a symposium on the future of newspapers at the Poynter Institute of Media Studies in St. Petersburg, Florida.

Contributions to the SND Foundation are generally tax deductible (in the United States) as charitable donations. All but $1.00 of your contribution is deductible as a contribution to a non-profit organization. For contribution information, please contact SND.
