<span style="color: #1f497d;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Many thanks to everyone that came out to the IIDA 2016 Zero Landfill dual weekend event in August. Our tally was 44,886 lbs. for OUR FIRST WEEKEND. This compares to a total for ALL of last year of 34,800 lbs. In addition to letting us overtake their warehouse (while they are getting ready to renovate), Dal-Tile generously added to their donation of last year increasing their tile donation to almost 16,000 lbs. this year! Many thanks to Wilsonart for our breakfast and dinner at the event.</span> </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">St. Francis Cancer Center</span></h3>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Bon Secours St. Francis Health System of Greenville, South Carolina built its out-patient cancer facility to offer patients comprehensive care – from diagnostics to treatment – in a space designed just for them. This state-of-the-art destination not only supports patients, but also serves as a community center for family members and caregivers to gather. St. Francis focused on patient comfort, a serene ambiance and efficient staff workspaces, while using sustainable materials to create a lasting look. They chose architectural firm McMillan Pazdan Smith and Knoll, along with interior space provider CBI, to bring their vision into reality.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The annual IIDA Industry Roundtable brings together a select group of IIDA Industry and Designer Members for a facilitated session to discuss issues facing all partners working in the profession of Interior Design. Held in Chicago each year, the Industry Roundtable has become an invaluable "brain trust" session for manufacturers and a quality opportunity for designers to exchange dialogue on issues addressing the built environment.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">For the 2016 Report, entitled Design & Diversity, <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">IIDA convened a group of design experts to discuss why gender, equity, and multidisciplinary thinking are essential to business. This report outlines our initial findings and establishes the IIDA Diversity Council’s goals for diversity in the Interior Design profession.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">The report studies levels of diversity found in the Interior Design industry today, realizing that we're not as diverse as we think we are. For example, 69% of the 87,000 practitioners in the US today are women; only 25% of whom can be found in firm leadership.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />

<span class="wsite-text"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>THE SUSTAINABLE DESIGN COLLABORATIVE</strong> is a volunteer driven organization with members representing eight diverse building community organizations. Each member is a sustainable-minded professional. The Collaborative group is connected by a desire to provide professional design services to the 99% of the human race that does not normally have the opportunity to fund these types of services. They began in 2010 and complete one pro-bono project each year. Each of their organizations is represented at the annual Red and Green Scene Holiday Fundraising event. Currently, this event provides all of their funding.</span></span></div>

<span class="wsite-text"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>SDCA 2015</strong> involved Hagar Civilization Training Missionary, Inc. (HCTM). HCTM is a 501( C )(3) nonprofit community, housing, and economic development organization. Their building is situated adjacent to major thoroughfares, the Marta Station, and retail/service amenities. HCTM sits in the heart of Atlanta’s historic civil rights movement and at the epicenter of African Americans' former economic greatness.<br /><br />As such, HCTM adopted a mission to revitalize, and restore the area's former historic, economic, and cultural heritage. At the same time, the organization embraces a vision of transporting the area and its residents into the economically, culturally, and technologically based 21st Century.<br /><br />The organization is situated in the heart of Vine City and English Avenues, in the City of Atlanta’s historic District. The area is the home of the Civil Rights movement, and it is the heart of the fight for justice by the most powerful nonviolent social advocate of the twentieth century, the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The organization also sits adjacent to the historically black colleges and universities of the Atlanta University Center complex.</span></span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">HCTM made significant improvements to the transit pedestrian corridor and street elevation at the intersection of Joseph E. Lowery Boulevard and Martin L. King, Jr. Drive in Atlanta.</span><br />
