The National Association of Electrical Distributors has announced a $100,000 contribution by Maurice Electrical Supply Co., Inc. in Washington, D.C. to the NAED Education & Research Foundation.
"At Maurice we have always invested in people. Training is a major focus for our company, and we look to NAED and the Education & Research Foundation to develop the industry specific training resources and programs we need," says Bruce Kogod, CEO/Owner of Maurice Electrical Supply.
"Focused on the growth and well-being of our industry, it can only provide greater opportunity for our channel and our employees," he continues. "We are proud to carry on the long association with NAED that Bernie Green and Marvin Kogod had by sponsoring and participating in the Foundation."
Founded in 1922 by Gustave Solomon and Maurice Abraham, Maurice Electric Supply Co. is a full-line electrical distributor with locations in Washington, D.C. and Rockville, MD.
"We are grateful for Maurice's donation to the foundation. They have always been solid supporters of NAED, both monetarily and through volunteer
efforts," says Bill Elliott, chairman of the Channel Advantage Partnership. "We look forward to working even more closely with them in the future."
The company's donation will become part of an endowment fund for the NAED Education & Research Foundation. The principal amount of the endowment will
remain untouched, while the interest will be used to commission future projects and studies. As a $100,000 donor, Maurice Electrical Supply will have a permanent position on the Channel Advantage Partnership Council,
which will help select future educational programs and research projects.
NAED is based in St. Louis, MO. For more information visit www.naed.org.
