The GDC Foundation is growing a fund to support design research and education, special projects, scholarships for students and professional designers, and a benevolent fund to offer short-term financial assistance to designers experiencing a career-challenging difficulty. Our goal is to become a registered charity, to fulfil our mandate and expand our work.
The Ray Hrynkow scholarship, supported by Casey Hrynkow and other generous donors, is awarded annually to a student entering the third or fourth year of an undergraduate communication/graphic design program in Canada.

This year we are concentrating on building our Operations Fund in order to help the Foundation become a registered charity. The GDC Foundation currently offers scholarships, grants, and a benevolent fund. We're counting on you to help us build the funds! Please include your mailing address and email when you donate so that we can stay in touch.
Robert Bringhurst OC is a Canadian poet, typographer and author, best known to graphic designers for his authoritative book The Elements of Typographic Style (4th ed., 2012). A Short History of the Printed Word (with Warren Chappell, 1999), The Solid Form of Language: An Essay on Writing and Meaning (2004) and The Surface of Meaning: Books and Book Design in Canada (2008) are among his many works.
We all strive to demonstrate in clear terms the sum of our experience and skill to prospective clients or employers. A portfolio is one of a designer's many tools that help convey that ability. Clear communication and credentials are also essential tools in demonstrating the broader picture of your abilities and skills.
GDC recognizes that a successful design career needs a strong foundation that begins with design education. Our community of designers, educators and leaders share knowledge, resources and information and provide access to a diverse network of professional expertise. For design educators, CGD certification is a testament to professional knowledge and contribution.
