AIA Vermont is celebrating another great year of Pella + Purpose, now in its 5th year! In 2025, the program raised $3,100 for AIAVT's scholarship fund; proof that professional development and giving back can go hand in hand.

How it works: architect members earn CEUs by attending Pella + Purpose sessions, and for every individual who completes two sessions in a calendar year, Pella donates $150 straight to AIAVT's scholarship fund. It's continuing education that pays it forward.

Since it's inception in 2022, the Pella + Purpose program has raised $23,650 for AIAVT's scholarship fund. A huge thank-you to Jeff Stetter and the Pella team for their continued partnership, and to every firm and individual who took part in 2025 — your participation directly supports the next generation of Vermont architects. Haven't joined in yet? Keep an eye out for upcoming Pella + Purpose sessions and make your CEUs count toward a cause that matters!
