The National Equipment Finance Association (NEFA) Foundation Committee announced that its 2025 Spring Conference charity event raised more than $28,000 in support of the Tam Kỳ Project’s fire recovery efforts in Los Angeles and the Chris Walker Education Fund.
Originally planned as an outdoor glow golf experience, the event was quickly adapted to an indoor format due to inclement weather. But that didn’t stop over 110 participants from showing up ready to compete, connect, and contribute. The evening featured a lively mix of mini-golf, music, food, and drinks.
This impactful fundraiser was made possible thanks to the generous support of NEFA members including: Dakota Financial, LLC, Asset Compliant Solutions (ACS), Dedicated Financial GBC, Wintrust Specialty Finance, North Mill Equipment Finance, LTi Technology Solutions, InstaCOVER, LLC, First Commonwealth Equipment Finance, Hanmi Bank, Oakmont Capital Services, Channel Partners, Alliance Funding Group, Leasepath, Northland Capital, Dressler & Peters, LLC, APEX Commercial Capital, Navitas Credit Corp, Star Hill Financial LLC, and Universal Finance Corp.
“The commitment of our members and sponsors to come together for a greater cause is what makes NEFA truly special.” Chad Sluss, CEO of NEFA, said.
“It was incredible to see our community rally around these two meaningful causes,” Dave Gruber, Chair of the NEFA Foundation Committee, said. “The funds raised will have a real and lasting impact, not just for those recovering from the devastating fires in Los Angeles, but also for future leaders of our industry through the Chris Walker Education Fund. We are deeply grateful to everyone who made this possible.”
NEFA extends heartfelt thanks to all who participated, donated, and helped make the evening a glowing success — rain or shine.
