The E.L. Cord Foundation recently awarded the National Judicial College a $40,000 grant that will provide numerous technology upgrades in the College.  The Foundation has been a tremendous supporter of the College since 1965, and its giving has totaled nearly $1 million.  “The E.L. Cord Foundation is a longtime supporter of the National Judicial College, and we are extremely grateful for their continued, generous support. The state-of the-art technology that benefits the educational experience of all judges at the College would not be available if not for the E.L. Cord Foundation,” said Hon. William F. Dressel, president of the NJC.

The E.L. Cord Foundation was established on December 11, 1962, by E.L. Cord, a well-known businessman, industrialist and innovator whose visions, ideas and principles were far ahead of the times. Cord had many business ventures mainly in the manufacturing of automobiles, airplane and boat engines and electrical appliances as well as real estate. He died in 1974, and his foundation has been active in northern Nevada since that date.
