What is the NAPE Charities Luncheon?

The NAPE Charities Luncheon is held on Thursday of each year during the expo and is a chance for the oil & gas industry to give back to the veterans who have served our country. This is an opportunity for us, as individuals, to show our appreciation for all of their hard work and sacrifices by raising charity monies that are then donated to a veteran charity selected for that year. Each year showcases at least one deserving charity.

Each year there is a keynote speaker highlighting a particular topic. In the past years NAPE Expo has hosted such speakers as George W. Bush, Gordon Brown and Rocky Bleier.

In the past six years, NAPE Expo has raised over $2.6 million dollars and donated to such charities as:

The Mission Continues

Impact A Hero

Lone Survivor Foundation

The Pittsburgh Fisher house

Canine Companions For Independence

Operation Finally Home

Operation Homefront

How much of the money donated goes directly to the charity?
