Here's your chance to help a fellow Facility Manager! - Survey!
Steve Georgoulis, CFM, a VP with the Greater
Phoenix Chapter of IFMA, is conducting a FM survey for his Masters in
Construction at ASU. Steve is asking fellow Facility Managers to complete a
brief survey

increasingly challenging and constantly changing environment and the factors
that motivated them to become Facility Managers.
The survey takes less than two minutes to complete, and Steve hopes to have the
results published by IFMA corporate. Thanks for helping support FM
education!

Helping New Orleans
The IFMA Foundation has committed to organize a
volunteer rebuild project while in New Orleans for IFMA's World Workplace 2007
Conference & Expo, Oct. 24-26. The volunteer project will take place Saturday,
Oct. 27, following the conclusion of World Workplace. The IFMA Foundation is
currently working with several agencies to determine which project will be
undertaken.
Please consider extending your stay in New Orleans an additional day and
volunteer to be part of this effort. Everyone is welcome. We hope to make a
meaningful contribution to the city and people who are so graciously hosting us.
By staying an additional day you will be making a positive economic impact on
the city, while also making helping make critically needed repairs to the chosen
facility. The IFMA Foundation is in discussions with various city and municipal
representatives in an effort to identify a school, hospital or fire station that
needs the type of repair that we will be able to deliver. Updated information
will be made available through the IFMA communication channels and the World
Workplace Web site. If you have any questions, please contact Will Rub, - IFMA
Foundation Executive Director at
william.rub@ifma.org or 713-623-4362, ext. 158.
