Dear CRA Members,
Normally at this time, we are planning our annual golf tournament fundraiser. While we have fun on the green, the real winners are students of the rental industry and members in need of disaster relief. But this year, things aren't "normal." We are not hosting our annual golf tournament; instead, we are asking CRA members to contribute directly to the Rental Services Industry Foundation. RSIF needs your support to keep this program for all members, students and vendors moving forward. The foundation's income is derived from fundraisers such as the annual golf tournament, donations and any investment income earned. The younger people of our industry and association need to be better educated, more skilled, and more adaptive in this industry as our world changes at an ever faster pace. RSIF can help them get the skills they will need through financial assistance for education. RSIF funds have also been used in the past to help rental stores that have been hit by a natural disaster get back on their feet.
The Rental Services Industry Foundation is a 501c charitable nonprofit foundation. According to the Articles of Incorporation "The specific purpose of this Corporation is to provide scholarships, continuing education, emergency relief, special studies and educational libraries." This foundation was formed by the California Rental Association as a means to give back and help this industry that has provided so much opportunity to all of us.
Donations can be made online or send your donation made out to the Rental Services Industry Foundation to the CRA office. The future and current generation of rental industry employees and leaders will be most grateful to you. You can give opportunity to others as you have received opportunity.

Sincerely,
Paul Peterson, President
Rental Services Industry Foundation
