Ways To Give
The Equipment Dealers Foundation is thinking big about the future of our industry. Help us build a $1 million endowment fund to ensure we continue to have the people and the skills to be successful.
Since its inception, Equipment Dealers Foundation has raised funds for not only scholarships but for disaster relief. Considering the importance of employee skill development, and the rising technical demands facing equipment dealerships, this is a drop in the bucket. As an industry, we can and must do more.
How You Can Contribute
Make an annual donation. Think of it as an ongoing investment in the technical excellence of your dealership, and a statement of appreciation of your employees.
Make a one-time gift when you retire. Retiring NAEDA members have told us they’ve achieved great success in the industry and they want to give back. There’s no better way than contributing to the technical education of the industry’s next generation.
Create an employee scholarship. Set up a scholarship in your dealership’s name at one of many participating colleges.
Wills and life insurance. Name the EDF in your will or as the beneficiary of a life insurance policy.
Support the OSUIT Technician Training Program by donating equipment or engines. Contact us to be connected with program manager to discuss their needs.
Make A Difference
