Help Us Reach Our $45,000 PAC Goal for 2026!
Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, we've already distributed $28,750—64% of our 2026 PAC goal! But we're not finished yet.
An additional $16,250 in planned contributions is currently on hold until we raise the funds needed to fulfill those commitments.
Your support can help close the gap! With just a few months remaining in 2026, now is the time to invest in the future of architecture and strengthen our profession's voice in Virginia. Every contribution brings us closer to our goal and helps us continue advocating for architects and the issues that matter most.
Make your PAC contribution today and help us finish 2026 strong!
