Turn to us when you need support

One of the goals of the ARA Foundation is to provide quality educational opportunities for those in the equipment and event rental industry. Therefore, we support our Young Professionals Network (YPN) and the Women in Rental (WIR) groups by sponsoring speakers who deliver messages about leadership, business acumen, customer service, and more at The ARA Show™ and conferences throughout the year.
