The Natural Stone Foundation works to help provide solutions for the issues challenging the natural stone industry and provide funding for projects that cannot be accomplished solely through membership dues to the Natural Stone Institute. In 2021, the Foundation has provided funding for key association programs, including webinars, ISO standards, and scholarships. Today, the Foundation is well positioned to become a funding mechanism that supports industry initiatives through the donations of passionate companies and individuals who want to give back to their industry.
