As part of their ongoing efforts to expand their scholarship programs, The Architects Foundation recently announced 10 student recipients of the 2019-2020 Diversity Advancement Scholarship, which supports students about to enter architecture school. Established in 1970, the Diversity Advancement Scholarship was created after civil rights leader Whitney Young Jr.'s speech in 1968, which called for architects to create a more equitable, responsible profession.

Each student will receive $4,000 a year towards their tuition over the next five years, totaling to $20,000 each. The 2019 recipients are:

  • Roberto Arroyo 
  • Nia Lankford 
  • Kayla Brown 
  • Samuel Leung
  • Justine Do (Benjamin Moore & Co. Scholar) 
  • Sarah Lowrey 
  • Yanela Diaz 
  • Jalion McLean 
  • Alec Jackson
  • Michael Stokes

Deciding which candidates to award has become a difficult process as the competition pool grows more talented, said selection committee chair Anzilla Gilmore in a statement. “This years’ group was no exception. We look forward to seeing the outstanding contributions each of our scholars will make toward advancing diversity in the profession,” Gilmore added.
