AFP is committed to inclusion, diversity, equity and access. During the month of February, we’ll be recognizing and celebrating Black History Month with articles and interviews highlighting the experiences of Black fundraisers in the profession.
As AFP dives into the all-important conversation of mental health and wellness, we’ll be focusing on an important aspect of the topic in an upcoming webinar: self-care. Join Tanya Odom on Feb. 27 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern to discuss how self-care—defined as “being responsible to yourself”—relates to your work, how it decreases anxiety and more.
Now is the time to learn new skills and seize leadership opportunities in your organization and your career. AFP President and CEO Mike Geiger discusses how AFP will take the lead on the key issues you care about, and provide you the training and knowledge to take on the mantle of leadership.
How does a fundraiser achieve “success”? Is it just knowing all the fundraising techniques for each job or role? Or is there something more to fundraising success beyond education and training? The January 2020 issue of Advancing Philanthropy explores the idea that fundraising success starts with how you approach your job, your colleagues, your workplace and yourself.
AFP’s groundbreaking 2018 sexual harassment survey showed that harassment is a widespread problem for the fundraising profession.Members can now access our November 7 webinar with Dr. Erynn Beaton and Dr. Megan LePere-Schloop from The Ohio State University in which they use data from that survey, along with their own work, to offer best practices and solutions to prevent harassment in the fundraising workplace.
