AFP
Foundation - The Every Member Campaign
Over
30 years ago, the AFP Foundation for Philanthropy
was established to raise funds and support AFP´s programs
and leadership - beyond what membership dues can provide.
The Every Member Campaign is how, as professional
fundraisers, we can "give back" to support
services and resources that help us as fundraisers
bring together nonprofits and donors.
The
Foundation has been able to fund AFP initiatives that
benefit members, increase accessibility to educational
programs, fund new and innovative research, and conduct
public education programs to enhance the environment
for philanthropy.
Your
support assists AFP in expanding programs and resources
such as:
The
Essentials of Fundraising -- a series of classes developed
to meet the real-world needs and challenges nonprofit
organizations face every day, an invaluable resource
for new and entry-level fundraisers.
Expanded
technology resources that reach more professionals
with information, including online communities and
eWire.
Mentoring
opportunities.
-
Regional
conferences and workshops.
-
The
growth of educational publications, such as Advancing
Philanthropy and AFP´s Ready Reference
Series.
-
AFP
Research Council grants that provide us with valuable
information on new donor trends, regulatory and
economic impact, and more.
Your
support will allow AFP to meet the challenges of our
needs as professional fundraisers in this ever-changing
world and dynamic profession.
Your
support reflects an investment in our shared future
as more knowledgeable and effective fundraisers who
create an environment where philanthropy is flourishing,
making the world a better place.
We
invite your organization to sponsor and/or participate
in National Philanthropy Day. Support of NPD honors
the philanthropic spirit that makes the entire nonprofit
sector possible. At the same time, you will gain valuable
exposure to professional fundraisers and to professional
fundraisers and their donors. Click
