Fundraising Events

EMERG fundraising events

We put on events throughout the year to support our programs for students, teachers, and veterans. Most of our events happen around AMPP Annual Conference, but other events such as the Fall Classic Golf Tournament, happen throughout the year. If you would like to get involved with any of our events from a participation or sponsorship standpoint, please contact Heather Lowry for more details.

EMERGing Leaders Bash

Congratulations to our 2025 scholarship and award recipients

We were proud to recognize the achievements of this year’s scholarship and award recipients during the Scholarship Awards Ceremony and the EMERGing Leaders Bash at AMPP’s 2025 Conference + Expo.

We extend our sincere appreciation to our generous sponsors whose support made these celebrations possible: BP, sponsor of the Scholarship Awards Ceremony; Sherwin-Williams, Signature Sponsor and IUPAT, Silver Sponsor. Their contributions played a vital role in the success of these events.

Thank you to everyone who attended and helped celebrate these exceptional students. The evening was a meaningful tribute to the next generation of industry leaders and the promising future they represent.

Kudos once more to all our exceptional scholarship and award recipients!
