Paula Berg Student
Internship Support Fund

Join the family and friends of Paula Berg, founder of Paula Berg Design Associates, in honoring her life, love, and legacy through the establishment of the Paula Berg Student Internship Support Fund.  The fund will support students in the Interior, Architecture & Design (IAD) program by helping offset the costs of internships, with recipients selected at the discretion of IAD faculty.

• Your gift will be used only for the above-stated purpose if the required minimum expendable level of $10,000 is met by June 30, 2031.  If not met, the gift will be moved to a general fund with a similar purpose. 
• If circumstances arise that render the stated purpose of the gifts (as set forth herein) illegal, impractical, impossible, or wasteful (e.g., a change in law, the elimination of a USU program, position, or course of study, the persistent unavailability of scholarship recipients that meet the criteria, etc.); then, as set forth in this Solicitation, under such circumstances and in keeping with Utah Code 51-8-501(1), USU may designate a new purpose for the gifts.  Any such new purpose shall be defined by USU’s President and Dean of the College.
• Effective July 1, 2021, a 5% university gift investment fee, governed by USU’s applicable policies, will be applied to all new, non-endowed gifts to improve University Advancement’s capacity to increase and manage philanthropic giving to USU. 
• By letter dated April 8, 1959, the Internal Revenue Service has declared USU (federal tax identification number 87-6000528), to be a duly qualified charitable organization under section 501(c)(3) and also an organization described in sections 509(a)(1) and 170(b)(1)(A)(iv) of the Internal Revenue Code.
