Our Goals

Education - MWFA’s by-line is “Where Education is a Priority”    

The MWFA hosts at least four educational events a year mainly through seminar format but also through plant tours (hosted by member companies).  The value of education is priceless.  More knowledge awards more opportunity which awards increased success.

Not only does the MWFA invest in industry education, they offer college/trade school scholarships once a year.  To date, the MWFA has awarded $939,000 in scholarships to members, their children and spouses.  Awarding these scholarships is done through the generosity of member and industry donations as well as proceeds from our annual Fastener Show.
