Member Testimonial

Member Testimonial

I LOVE all the things IFEA is doing for our industry. I have never felt more connected to IFEA members than this last year and it was THE selling point for being able to renew my membership. GREAT JOB adapting, assisting and creating something that while I can’t wait to gather again as a group in person, I hope these types of affinity groups/activities never go away.
