EDPA and its Foundation congratulated Ten (10) New Scholars in 2009, who were awarded a total of $24,000.
They represent the following schools:
Bemidji State University
Full Sail University

Providence College
Savannah College of Art and Design
Tulane University
University of Las Vegas – Honors College

Our mission is to provide financial support when tragedy strikes the families of industry members, to award scholar-ships to engage creative thinkers who will be the trailblazers and leaders of tomorrow and to ensure the future of the foundation and its good work.
EDPAF was created in 2002 by the Exhibit Designer and Producers Association to provide a clear path towards a brighter future for the exhibition industry.
We envision the EDPA Foundation as a recognized catalyst in building and strengthening the tradshow/event industry by making families stronger and trade show events more vital to the economy of our nation.
