ASCE Society Dues Waivers

James H. Brace Bequest:

In October 1957, the Board of Direction accepted a bequest by James H. Brace, M.ASCE, the proceeds of which are available, in nominal sums, to engineers faced with unemployment, financial hardship, or other special circumstances for payment of their ASCE membership dues.

Brace Fund requests are granted for one year and are based on the number of years of paid membership.  If you receive a Brace Fund dues waiver, all Society membership benefits will continue for that year.

If you would like to make a tax-free, charitable donation to the Brace Fund to support engineers who are unemployed or facing financial difficulty, donate online, call 800-548-2723 (ASCE) or +1 (703) 295-6300 (Int'l) M – F, 9 am – 6 pm, E.T., or mail your contribution to:
ASCE-Accounting, PO Box 79084, Baltimore, MD 21279-0084.
