CAPMA Cares: Supporting Our Community and Nurturing Future Leaders
At CAPMA, our commitment to community and growth shines through our foundations: CAPMA Cares and the Scholarship Foundation. These programs exemplify our dedication to supporting our members and investing in the future of the pest management industry.
CAPMA C.A.R.E.S.: Lending a Hand in Times of Need
CAPMA C.A.R.E.S., formerly known as PCOC C.A.R.E.S. (Committee Action Relief in Emergency Situations), is our heartfelt response to members facing unforeseen hardships. This program provides vital assistance to CAPMA members, their families, and dependents during challenging times, such as serious illness, accidents, or significant financial distress.
Your support helps build a resilient community where everyone can thrive, even in tough times. This year alone, we raised an incredible $10,945 to support our CAPMA family.
Thank you to all who have contributed, CAPMA Cares ensures that no member stands alone.
