The Ammonia Refrigeration Foundation
(ARF) is a non-profit research and education
foundation organized by members of
the International Institute of Ammonia
Refrigeration (IIAR) to promote educational
and scientific projects related to industrial
refrigeration and the use of ammonia and
other natural refrigerants.
The goal of the Foundation is to support
research and educational efforts in industrial
refrigeration, particularly in the area of
ammonia and natural refrigerants. Some of the
ways the Foundation envisions accomplishing
its goals are:
to create and fund scholarship programs
to fund industry-specific research
The seven-member Board of Directors of ARF
is comprised of the IIAR Immediate Past Chair
who serves as the Foundation’s Chair, the IIAR
current Chair who serves as the Foundation’s
Secretary, one current IIAR appointed board
member, two general members of IIAR
appointed by the IIAR Board, the Chair
of the IIAR Research Committee and the
Chair of the IIAR Education Committee.
ARF is a 501(c)(3) foundation, created
with an endowment from IIAR. Individuals,
manufacturers, contractors and end-users of
refrigeration are encouraged to participate in
the important work of the Foundation either
through tax-deductible donations that would
further the legacy of our industry or through
proposals for educational and research
programs for the organization to consider for
funding.
