About the Program

The Fundamentals of Fundraising program, now in its 12th year, is presented by the Fort Lauderdale/ Broward Chapter of AFP. This is a unique opportunity for professional staff, volunteers and trustees to meet with Broward County’s top fundraising professionals in a sharing, educational environment.

There will be ten (10) information packed sessions to help you and your organization effectively plan, organize and successfully manage a fundraising program.

A dynamic, experienced faculty will lecture and lead discussions on techniques that achieve results.

Those who attend the course will receive a comprehensive study guide which includes outlines, handouts, helpful hints, and samples of tested ideas that work! Our outstanding faculty will address current issues in fundraising and help you to move forward.

We thank the Sun-Sentinel for their gracious hospitality, and our faculty for volunteering their time and talents.
