The ISSA organization has once again provided a donation to support our work. We thank the ISSA and its members for their support.

It was with great sorrow that ISSA and the ISSAEF noted the loss of our beloved colleague and friend, Howard A. Schmidt. He was a long-time supporter of the ISSAEF and a friend to many of us on the Board, so we were pleased to name one of our scholarships in his honor in 2016, while he was still alive. We encourage you to continue his legacy by contributing to his scholarship through the Donate page.
