The winners will receive a scholarship of $1,500.00 each and the opportunity to share their experiences and insights at the SEC conference. Don’t miss this chance to showcase your dedication to diversity and inclusion.
Funding and Legacy
ESCA scholarships are made possible by the generous contributions of our members and industry partners. We would like to recognize CORT Events for their directed donations to the fund in honor of Dennis Hale.
Dennis Hale served as the Executive Director of CORT™ Events and dedicated over 12 years to the rental industry. As an ESCA board member, he was devoted to helping the less fortunate in his community. Dennis regularly volunteered at the Las Vegas homeless shelter, spending countless hours planning and preparing meals for those in need. He consistently worked to positively impact those around him. Dennis bravely faced his battle with ALS, which he lost in 2013, displaying the courage, conviction, and grace that characterized his life. This scholarship honors his legacy of service.
Please support our mission to promote education within the exhibition industry by contributing to our scholarship fund. Your generous donations can make a significant difference in nurturing future leaders and furthering the education of deserving students in our community. All donations to the scholarship fund will be allocated exclusively for scholarships, with no administrative fees or costs diminishing your contribution.
