Why Your Support Matters

The future of facility management is at a defining moment. With more than half of today’s facility managers expected to retire within the next decade, bold action is needed now to ensure a strong, skilled workforce for the future.

The IFMA Foundation is leading this effort by strengthening the talent pipeline, expanding access to education and training, positioning facility management as a career of choice, and partnering with industry and academia to prepare the next generation to succeed in essential roles that sustain our built environment.

Your generosity makes this work possible. Donor support drives workforce programs, equips local volunteers with critical tools, launches and strengthens academic pathways, and expands outreach to students, educators, counselors, and families shaping career decisions.

When you give to the IFMA Foundation, you do more than support a mission—you help secure the future of facility management worldwide.

What Our Supporters Say

Read Article

“Facilities management will not earn its rightful place as a strategic profession by chance. It requires collective responsibility from organisations and leaders who have grown alongside the industry.

For EFS, continued support of the IFMA Foundation is both giving back and paying forward. It is an investment in talent we may never employ and leaders we may never personally meet. Yet their influence will shape our industry for decades.

That, to us, is the essence of sustainable leadership.”
