The event will include practicing architects, interns, current students, professors from local universities, and representatives or alumni from universities offering a degree in architecture. Students, parents, teachers, and counselors will be able to ask questions, receive first-hand information on what it takes to become an architect and learn the specifics on how each university architectural program is uniquely different. Students will also gain knowledge on the path an architecture student takes upon graduating college, internship development requirements, the licensing process, the professional practice, and organizations that support it.

North Texas Giving Day for SEM

North Texas Giving Day Banner

This year, on Thursday, September 19, 2019, SEM PTSA is participating in Communities Foundation of Texas’ North Texas Giving Day, a one-day online giving extravaganza for our whole region.

Last year, Communities Foundation of Texas brought together 2,700 organizations to raise $48 million, and we are excited to be a part of the movement this year! Since its founding in 2009, North Texas Giving Day has inspired people to get up and give, resulting in increased donations and services provided in North Texas.

We invite you to join the movement and help us reach our goal of $15,000 on September 19. Here’s how you can help:

1. Get up and give on September 19!

Your gift matters! On September 19, if you donate to SEM PTSA   (https://www.northtexasgivingday.org/semagnet) between 6am and midnight, your dollar will be stretched with bonus funds and prizes raised by Communities Foundation of Texas!

Not available on September 19? No worries! Schedule your donation, between September 9 and September 18 and make your gift count!  If you can’t give online, PTSA will be collecting donations by check between September 9 and 18 as well.

2. Spread the word!

Spread the word to your friends and loved ones about SEM PTSA and North Texas Giving Day! Don’t forget to tag SEM PTSA and #NTxGivingDay if you’re posting online!
