Logistics Education Foundation
In recognition of the need for support to the education and
training of logisticians, in 1974 SOLE founded the Logistics Education Foundation (LEF).
This non-profit foundation, which derives its authority from SOLE, has as its purpose the
collection of funds for, and the providing of financial support to the educational activities
and programs of the Society. This includes, but is not limited to: providing the
funding for SOLE's annual scholarship and doctoral dissertation awards programs;
grants; publication of technical/educational material (e.g., monographs); and other
financial assistance to individuals and organizations furthering logistics education,
as determined by the LEF's Board of Governors. No action may be undertaken by the LEF
that is not in consonance with and in support of the objectives of the Society. Programs and initiatives undertaken by the LEF in support
of SOLE’s educational agenda include:
The operation of the LEF is administered by a Board of
Governors (BOG). The Board of Governors consists of the LEF Executive Committee; the
LEF President; Vice President, Administration; and Vice President, Finance (collectively,
LEF's officers); plus the LEF Director of Operations, Director of Communications, SOLE's
