Tower Industry Family Support
Charitable Foundation
Since Inception:
Since its inception in September of 2014, the Tower Industry Family Support Charitable Foundation has awarded over $3,700,000 in financial assistance and scholarships to eligible tower workers and their families.
Our Mission
The Tower Family Foundation has been established to help provide financial assistance and scholarships to family members of a severely injured, permanently disabled, or deceased tower worker injured or killed in an accident stemming from working at heights on communication structures or other on the job related activities that tower workers are involved in on a daily basis.
With your help, it’s made focusing on his road to recovery less stressful and overwhelming on our family and helped with medical equipment and bills. We’ve been a part of the tower industry for 14 years. Situations like this you unfortunately hear about but never imagine could happen to you. The compassion and help you’ve shown us and families like ours through such hard times is remarkable. We are forever grateful, appreciative, and couldn’t ever thank you enough.

The Tower Family Foundation was established after NATE officials were approached with the idea of forming a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to supporting tower workers and their families in the aftermath of accidents or fatalities. Efforts to lay the groundwork began shortly thereafter, and the Foundation was officially incorporated on April 23, 2013. It received its tax-exempt 501(c)(3) status from the IRS on February 7, 2014.
