The association has established a memorial fund to honor our co-founder's efforts and to expand his dreams and fervent belief in helping to educate and promote creativity in this and future generations. In remembering Bernie's untiring dedication to youth and enhancing the future of our country by rejuvenating the spirit of Thomas A. Edison, we will endeavor to help our youth and our community in supporting academics and creativity through scholarship and assistance.  

To date over $6,000 has been contributed to supporting academics and creativity through sponsorship of educational programs reaching thousands of students.
