Join the BFI Network!

By supporting BFI financially you will be able to fully join in our network of leading thinkers and designers who are demonstrating whole systems solutions to complex problems. Individuals in the network play a critical role in the fulfilling BFI's mission through their volunteerism, expert advice, participation in programs, and financial support. We invite you to consider making a donation to support the Institute today!

Benefits of support include the opportunity to experience a deeper level of engagement with our website such as creating a detailed profile within the BFI network, searching the online directory, utilizing BFI Groups to meet other network supporters and to start your own groups.

Additionally, you receive our print publication, TRIMTAB and our monthly electronic news bulletin, Design Science News. You are extended discounts on the price of our educational seminars, events and items in our on-line store. You are included in special invitations to join BFI at in-person networking events. Most importantly, you are connected to an international network of people who worked with Fuller, have been inspired by his vision, and/or who are committed to doing their part to design a world that works for all.
We invite you to consider making a donation to support the Institute today!

Basic support begins at the $50 level ($35 for students/seniors/low income). We encourage all who are able to support BFI at the $100 Associate Level, the actual cost of maintaining an individual network connection.

To get started simply fill out the information below and you will receive an email with further instructions.

Thank you for registering as a user on BFI.org and for supporting our work!
