NAEDA Equipment Dealers Foundation (EDF)

The NAEDA Equipment Dealers Foundation (EDF) was established in 1988 as a separate entity from the association in an effort to provide the funding necessary to meet the industry's need for training resources. The foundation is the publicly supported 501(c)(3) charitable organization of the North American Equipment Dealers Association.

 


 

The EDF Disaster Relief Fund was established in September 2005 after Hurricane Katrina caused severe destruction along the Gulf coast from central Florida to Texas destroying equipment dealerships and their employee's homes. Since that time, the EDF fund has provided grants to dealers and their employees affected by hurricanes, storms, flooding and other natural disasters.

The fund is designed to help offset some of the financial demands faced by those affected by the disasters. Grants may be used for food, living expenses, temporary accommodations, home repair, permanent home construction and other approved needs. Learn more by reading the grant application form.
