PAVE Global has opened applications for its Spring 2026 Student Aid Program, offering $1,000 financial assistance grants to full-time college-level design and architecture students worldwide. The program supports students facing unforeseen financial circumstances that may impact their ability to continue their education. Applications are open through April 20, 2026.

At the 2024 PAVE Gala, we made a promise: every dollar raised would go directly back into student programs. In 2025, that promise has been kept — and exceeded. PAVE is awarding over $120,000 in scholarships, grants, and support this year, more than doubling our impact. From expanded scholarships to new awards and travel stipends, we’re investing in the next generation of designers like never before.

Thanks to generous Champions of Design supporters and successful fundraising initiatives, PAVE Global exceeded its original goal and provided $1,000 grants to 30 design students from 28 institutions worldwide – double the initially planned 15 awards.
