The Membership Grant Program is made possible by our Chapter Sponsors. In an effort to increase and retain membership, the Texas/Oklahoma Chapter Sponsors contribute to the Grants listed below by meeting the cost of IIDA membership for one year. A request for grant applications is made through email announcements and posted to our Chapter website during the Fall of each year.

The New Member Grant was established to encourage Interior Designers to join IIDA. Applicants are eligible to apply if you are a currently not an IIDA Member and your Employer does not pay for professional organization dues. You are also eligible if your Employer pays for a portion of your membership dues. Each of the seven City Centers within our Chapter nominates (1) Professional and (1) Associate Member to the Chapter Board for approval. A total of fourteen grants are awarded thanks to our Chapter sponsors.

The Renewing Member Lottery Grant is for active renewing Members. If you are a renewing Professional or Associate Member and your Employer does not pay your professional organization dues you are eligible. You are also eligible if your Employer pays for a portion of your membership dues. The local City Center nominates (1) Member from your City to enter the lottery. All seven names are put into a lottery and one is chosen at random.
