Accomplishments  
 

1. Continuous financial and technical support to the successful implementation of the PQA Program (since 1998) through fund-raising and other activities

    One of the main fund-raising activities of the PQA Foundation is the yearly PQA Forum where the year's recipients present their organization's best practices and winning strategies. This forum is the first public announcement of the PQA recipients about their sucessful strategies and performance practices.
