2009 EDF - Benefit Auction

The Equipment Dealers Foundation (EDF) Disaster Relief Fund (fund) was established by North American Equipment Dealers Association and its affiliated associations to provide grants to equipment dealers and their employees in disaster areas for losses not covered by insurance, and property damaged or destroyed. The fund is designed to help offset some of the financial demands faced by those affected by disasters. Grants from the fund may be used for food, living expenses, temporary accommodations, home repair, home replacement, permanent home construction, transportation accommodations, and other approved needs.

To date, the fund has provided more than $150,000 in grants. Established in 2005 following Hurricane Katrina, every dollar collected by the foundation has been used for disaster assistance grants. Iowa-Nebraska Equipment Dealers Association (I-NEDA) is the first affiliated association to conduct an auction to support the EDF fund.

During its 2009 Conference, on Wednesday, November 11, I-NEDA will host its second fundraiser auction as part of the Specialty Manufacturers' Welcome Reception.

The reception begins at 6:00 p.m. | The auction will start at 7:00 p.m.
