Diversity & Inclusion
Click on the quote to read the article " How can you balance Work & Life" by Laura Miller
Each and every day, the important work you do demonstrates that you are a leader in effecting change in our community, making it a much better place for all of us. These three words—Empower, Strengthen, Transform—describe WHAT you do as a fundraiser and WHY you do it.
When you give to the BE the CAUSE Campaign, benefiting both our chapter and the AFP Foundation for Philanthropy, you are investing in the future of our profession and advancing philanthropy for the greater good.
You can go online to afpfoundation.org to make your gift.
Thank you to the Be the Cause Donors for 2018!
All donors will be recognized at the December 18th Holiday Luncheon!
