Greetings AFP-Hampton Roads Chapter Members,
I hope you enjoyed attending our November chapter “pop- up” presentation by AFP member, Patrick Belcher, that discussed ‘Setting up your Fundraising Staff for Success.’ We appreciate Patrick hosting this session for our chapter.
The spirit of philanthropy was alive and well through our celebration of philanthropy in Inside Business's November 23rd edition and through our social media posts! Thank you to Amy Weinstein - National Philanthropy Day Chair, Ashley Greene - Communications Chair, April Le - Sponsorship Chair and their committees for all of their work in helping our chapter celebrate philanthropy in Hampton Roads.
It's so hard to believe that 2020 is coming to a close. What a year it has been for our world! As we close the chapter on AFP's 2020 year, I reflect on all we accomplished as a team during the pandemic. Our AFP-HR Board Members responded to the challenges that faced our chapter this year. They made calls to members to check on them, created pop-up virtual programs, re-imagined our National Philanthropy Day Celebration and the way we offer our Fundraising Leadership Symposium, offered special pop-up programs for our members, secured event sponsors, created tools to help us focus on our diversity and inclusion chapter efforts, exceeded our Be the Cause goal, matched mentors with mentees, secured scholarship recipients, shared government affairs news and more...all while in a pandemic!
I am so proud of our Board of Directors, the committees as well as Chapter Administrator, Jan Dungan, for their tireless work during this difficult year. I am especially grateful for the help of Past President, Nicole Pellegrino, and incoming President, Kate Wilson, for their advice and wisdom during 2020.
We are truly grateful for the service of the following board members who will be rolling off of the AFP Board of Directors at the end of December: Past President Serena Amerson, Past President Laurie Harrison, Reneé Duval Fairchild and Reese Beeler. They have left an indelible mark on our chapter and will be sorely missed on our Board of Directors. Kudos on a job well-done!
At our December 15th chapter meeting, we will host virtual festive activities, honor our Be the Cause donors, recognize our retiring board members, pass the leadership gavel and welcome a representative from AFP-Global to share information on member benefits. Save the date and join us!
It has truly been an honor to serve as your Chapter President this year and I appreciate your support through these tumultuous times! I wish Kate Wilson all the best as we head into 2021 - our chapter is in great and able hands! Thanks for all YOU have done to advance philanthropy in Hampton Roads in 2020!
Keep up the good work,
Kenda G. Council
2020 President, AFP-HR
