What is the Pest Management Foundation?
The Pest Management Foundation’s mission and purpose is to advance the pest management industry through education, research, and training. The Pest Management Foundation is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization affiliated with the National Pest Management Association, the industry's only national trade group. The Foundation has been in existence for more than 30 years and was originally named the Buettner Foundation in honor of William O. Buettner, NPMA’s first President and Executive Vice President. In recent years, a new fund has been established honoring Norman Goldenberg for his years of service to the industry. Visit NPMAFoundation.org for more information.
