At NAPE, we believe in giving back, and our years of success have enabled us to do so. We’re honored to have been able to help a variety of local and national charities and to create a positive economic impact on the cities that host our events.

To date, NAPE has touched the lives of people beyond our attendees, exhibitors and sponsors. The impact of our organization includes:

NAPE Expo Charities Fund
In 2019, America’s oilmen honored the late President George H.W. Bush with a $1 million donation given in his name to the NAPE Expo Charities Fund to continue its mission of honoring veterans. Over the next 10 years, this generous donation will be distributed in $100,000 increments to veterans charities selected by the NAPE Operators Committee.

Hurricane Harvey Relief
In response to the devastation of Hurricane Harvey to NAPE`s host city of Houston and the surrounding areas, the NAPE Charities Fund donated $50,000 to the American Red Cross to aid in the relief efforts.

NAPE Charities Keynote
Held each year at the NAPE Summit, our annual NAPE Charities Keynote has raised over $3.8 million for various charities including ones that work with wounded and disabled U.S. veterans.

Economic Impact
Each event we host brings economic benefits to the host city. The positive economic impact we’ve made on Houston is estimated at $21.9 million.
