NAPPQM really appreciates its leadership, who give their time to make the association a great group to be a part of. Here we have the outgoing Executive Committee (6 in attendance), some who served two years, and the incoming EC (5 in attendance).
The day after our annual meeting over 20 NAPPQM members gave time sorting food and other donated products at the MANNA Foodbank of Western North Carolina. We love volunteering!
On Day 2 of our annual NAPPQM meeting, we were honored to be joined by members and representatives of PPQ's Management Team. We had excellent discussion about key issues and how to move PPQ forward.
The 2024 Annual Meeting of NAPPQM took place this week in Asheville NC. A great time was had by all, with this year's theme being "Reconnect, Re-energize, Revitalize"
