As the Chair of the Board of Trustees of the Florida Engineering Foundation let me welcome you to the Foundation website. It is relatively new as of late summer of 2011 so we hope to be making upgrades in the coming months. We are hopeful this will become a beneficial way to reach out to all of our supporters in the coming years. As such your comments about the site are much appreciated.

FEF has grown steadily since its inception in 1986. A great deal of credit goes to our volunteers in the early years of the Foundation. To recognize that credit the Board of Trustees has named Richard B. Gassett, P.E., Ret. and Raymond W. Miller, P.E. as Trustees Emeritus. My thanks to them for their devoted efforts for the past 25 years.
We are also appreciative of our partnerships with the American Society of Civil Engineers, the Florida Engineering Society/Florida Institute of Consulting Engineers and the Society of Women Engineers. It is through relationships such as these that the FOUNDATION will grow and thereby continue to impact engineering education.
We will continue to focus on our ongoing programs such as Scholarships, MATHCOUNTS and University Chapter Support as well as other specific donations to special programs. CLICK HERE to learn more about our partners and programs.
We look forward to and appreciate your support in these endeavors.
Jim Horton, P.E.
