THE BILL HARRISON FOUNDATION
The Bill Harrison Foundation creates educational experiences that foster exploration, inspiration, and creativity, ensuring the next generation of creative and curious thinkers has equal access to pursue career pathways in architecture, design, and the building arts.
Did You Know?
Women, Black, and Latino professionals remain significantly underrepresented in architecture and design. Without intentional intervention, this gap not only limits diversity in the workforce but also diminishes the creative innovation and cultural richness that our communities deserve.
Only 2% of licensed architects in the U.S. are Black, with Black women representing less than 1%. Latino professionals account for just 6% of the industry.
Students who receive early, project-based exposure to architecture and design are 2.5x more likely to pursue those fields in college.
The Bill Harrison Foundation exists to help change that!
