Establishing the 35 Under 35 Award Endowment

A conversation sparked immediate action to secure the future of AIChE’s 35 Under 35 Award, a program honoring rising stars in chemical engineering.

With a $50,000 fundraising goal now underway, this effort ensures that the next generation of leaders will be recognized and celebrated for years to come.
