On April 19th, IFMA Houston had 130+ Sponsors, Golfers, and Volunteers show up to play golf and help us raise money for FM Education. 

With your help, IFMA Houston was able to give 2 lucky students full scholarships to help pay for their education in the Facility Management field. 

We had food, beverages, and a GREAT time!

The photos from the event are posted on our website, and we know those who missed the event will have severe "FOMO" once they get a look at what they missed. 

If you are interested in a sponsorship for next year's tournament, you can go ahead and complete and commitment form for the 2022 Golf Tournament, and we will contact you in January when the tournament gets closer. 

Congratulations to ALL of our players, and THANK YOU to all of our Sponsors!

On May 13th, Dianne Murata, the Founding Principal of Kimiko Designs joined IFMA Houston for our May virtual presentation to discuss furniture planning. 

She thoroughly discussed ways facility managers can plan their office space in order to avoid common issues in the office workspace. 

Dianne thoroughly covered the different steps each facility manager should take while undertaking a furniture project from cost implications to codes and planning. 

For those in attendance, you received an email after the event with a link to the survey, so IFMA Houston could receive your feedback regarding the presentation. Once you complete the survey, you received a link to the recording of the presentation. 

With the distribution of vaccinations on the rise, IFMA Houston is excited to be able to host a COVID-safe Fish Fry! 

We will have a space reserved outdoors, where IFMA Houston and our guests will be able to network safely. 

The beer will be cold; the fish will be fresh, and we will be SO excited to see our friends - new and old! Register for this exciting event today!
