Council of Fellows' Scholarship
Honoring Chuck Johnson, The Furniture Guild
What is The Fellows Scholarship?
Established in 2008 by the DPHA Council of Fellows, the Scholarship Foundation honors the memory of all industry leaders and is presented at the DPHA Annual Conference held each fall. The Scholarship Fund is a monetary award to further the college, trade school or other postgraduate education of a child or grandchild of any individual working at a Decorative Plumbing & Hardware Association member business. Applications for 2024 were accepted through May 31st. The winners selected for this year will be announced at the Conference in Denver on October 18th.
How You Can Support The Scholarship Fund.
Since its inception in 2001, DPHA’s success can be traced directly to the generosity of its members: individuals and organizations that have freely given of their time, talent and wisdom, in addition to their funds. DPHA is confident that this same spirit will make the DPHA Council of Fellows Scholarship flourish and become an award worthy of its namesakes. This program is supported through individual donations (link below), as well as through contributions each year at Conference.
This Year's Honoree:
Each year our Fellows choose an industry leader to honor. This year we honor one of the greats, Chuck Johnson of The Furniture Guild. Chuck epitomized what makes our industry special. He was laser-focused on providing showrooms and its customers luxury products that might be copied by lower-priced competitors but could never be duplicated. A constant stream of new innovations are hallmarks of the Furniture Guild’s offerings that remain a competitive advantage for showrooms today. Chuck was obsessed with making our industry better by not only providing unique, head-turning products, but also training sales professionals to become better.
