Fostering LEADERSHIP through the support of our next generation of leaders in architecture.

The Beverly E. Hauschild-Baron Leadership Fund (BHB Fund) was established in 2001 to recognize Beverly Hauschild-Baron’s 25 years of service to AIA Minnesota. Its purpose is to help develop ongoing leadership for AIA Minnesota by providing financial support for AIA Minnesota members and AIA Minnesota staff pursuing leadership training. Funding is provided through designated donations and other private support.
