Investing in the Foundation
Posted 07/17/08
When asked why someone donates, the word “investment” is usually the first point made. The equipment finance industry is no stranger to putting money where it is needed, and the Foundation donations, which continue to flow, prove that industry leaders believe in investing in our mission – keeping a close eye on the future of this industry and helping provide research to turn ideas into reality.
The Foundation is currently engaged in its annual fundraising push, which means you may be getting a call soon from a Foundation volunteer asking for a donation, if you haven’t already. The call is a good time to ask why they, themselves, support the Foundation.You may hear a similar story as Michelle Rodriguez’s thoughts. President of HSW, a leading buyer of commercial debt portfolios, and new Foundation donor, Michelle says, “As someone who has both personally and professionally benefited from a tenured and successful career within this industry, I cannot think of a better group to support than the Equipment Leasing and Finance Foundation (EL&FF). As the Foundation conducting and commissioning the industry’s most important research, my personal and corporate contributions to the EL&FF serve to further the progress of the entire industry. I would strongly encourage my peers and contemporaries to donate and/or participate in the Foundation.”
