PPAI hosted the Promotional Products Education Foundation’s (PPEF) 2019 Executive Committee and members of the newly elected 2020 Executive Committee last week at the Association’s Irving, Texas, headquarters. PPEF’s Executive Committee meeting focused on the Foundation’s plans for 2020, including the budget and how much to award in scholarships, and PPEF’s strategic priorities as it continues its growth to help even more industry families.
The PPEF executive committee consists of the officers of the Foundation’s full 18-member board of trustees. Recommendations developed at the meeting last week will go on to the board for approval.
