NAFCD & NBMDA Donating $20/Conference Attendee to Nonprofits

Chicago, IL, August 9, 2024-As a part of their respective annual give-back programs, both NAFCD and NBMDA are donating $20 per attendee to nonprofits during their 2024 annual convention. The October 22 to 24 event is expecting to have over 1,000 distribution professionals join them in New Orleans, Louisiana.

NAFCD is giving their portion of the proceeds to the nonprofit Floor Covering Industry Foundation. This industry-based foundation assists the families of professionals who have worked in the floorcovering industry by providing grants for medical care and other basic needs. The charity has supported the floor-covering industry family through times of medical crises since 1981.

NBMDA's charitable contributions will go towards the National Woods Board (NWB). The organization aims to make trade education accessible to high schools around the United States. To build these future skilled trade laborers, the NWB implements the successful learning model created by the Colorado Springs-based Manufacturing Industry Learning Lab (The MiLL).
