The Equipment Leasing & Finance Foundation is 100% supported by our generous donors and volunteers to provide a wide range of resources and opportunities that help make you and your business successful. From insightful, comprehensive data-driven research to talent development and recruiting opportunities, the Foundation works for the betterment of the equipment finance industry and its participants, while we exercise careful stewardship of your donations.
Randy Haug, Executive Vice President/Co-Founder, LTi Technology Solutions, agrees. “I donate to the Foundation because I believe in its mission, and its future outcome-based research is an impactful and critical driver to improve and sustain our industry and our businesses,” he said. “The work the Foundation does is truly an example of ‘a rising tide lifts all boats’ for everyone involved in the equipment finance industry.”
Among the Foundation’s valued research—all available at no charge—are the Monthly Confidence Index for the Equipment Finance Industry (MCI-EFI) and the Foundation-Keybridge U.S. Equipment & Software Investment Momentum Monitor, which are released monthly. The Equipment Leasing & Finance U.S. Economic Outlook is updated quarterly throughout the year, as is the Industry Snapshot, a slide deck of economic and equipment finance industry data and commentary for use in executive presentations. The Foundation also produces reports on topical subjects, such as cybersecurity and digitalization, as well as vertical market studies. Access to the size and scope of this industry-specific research would be beyond the reach of most individual companies. Through the combined resources of the Foundation, it is accessible to everyone.

Of the many things the Foundation has to offer, one of the most valuable is the opportunity to give back. Our Guest Lecture Program, which provides equipment finance industry leaders with a ready-made presentation, has been delivered at colleges and universities throughout the country—both in-person and virtually—to increase awareness of equipment finance as a career path. The Foundation Scholarship Program, which is accepting applications until April 30, offers three $5,000 scholarships to undergraduate and graduate students interested in the equipment finance industry. These initiatives to develop the emerging, diverse workforce of the future are some of the ways Foundation volunteers and donors are paying it forward.
“Through the Academic Outreach Program, the Foundation provides opportunities for students to experience the equipment finance industry in hopes they choose a career in finance to grow our talent pool,” said Donna Yanuzzi, Director of Vendor & Small Business Equipment Finance, F.N.B. Equipment Finance, First National Bank of PA and chair of the Foundation’s Academic Outreach Committee. “All this takes money, but it’s money well spent. I give to the Foundation because I get so much more back!”
Subject matter experts are also encouraged to submit an article for publication in the Journal of Equipment Lease Financing. The Journal shares content for and about the equipment finance industry in a peer-reviewed format which reaches over 12,000 readers.
We’re here to deliver the industry-specific knowledge, intelligence and programs that contribute to the equipment finance industry and its participants. Regardless of how or why you decide to get involved with the Foundation, it’s sure to be an enriching experience.
