Help us raise an additional $30,000 for the Educational Fund in our 30th year! Click here to donate!
The NASTT Educational Fund helps raise money for very worthy causes. 100% of the money raised goes directly toward our programs that allow us to provide targeted trenchless training courses to the industry, publish trenchless resource manuals, sponsor university student attendance at the NASTT No-Dig Show, as well as award student and municipal scholarships.
In 2020, NASTT is celebrating 30 years of trenchless excellence and we are asking for your help to raise $30,000 for our educational fund. View a full list of current donors here!
NASTT is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation. Donations are deductible for income tax purposes to the full extent of the law (tax identification number 36-3727335).

Online, virtual auction coming soon! Stay tuned for details!
