Scholarship

The Joseph P. Crawford, CLU Memorial Scholarship was created by the NAIFA Georgia Board of Directors to provide a scholarship to a High School Senior who demonstrates exceptional academic performance.

The Image Builders Foundation was created to carry forward the ideals and interests of NAIFA Georgia by establishing a fund that exists solely to compliment NAIFA Georgia in advancing the aims and ideals of its members. The fund was established to honor a past president, Joseph P. Crawford, who passed away in 1999. Joey exemplified the true meaning of dedication to this organization.  In August 2021, the award has been renamed The Joseph P. Crawford and Patty Beal Brown Memorial Scholarship to honor both Joey Crawford and Patty Brown.  Patty worked vigorously for the Association for many years and was the first female to hold the position of President NAIFA Georgia.  Patty passed away in 2021.
