25 Years of Service to the Fundraising Community

Cynthia Quigley, AFP’s Director of Canadian Services and AFP Greater Toronto Chapter, will be retiring at the end of this year following an incredible 25-year commitment to AFP.  

Cynthia started with the chapter in 1994. In 2010, when the AFP Canada Office moved to Toronto, Cynthia became the Director of Canadian Services supporting the AFP Foundation for Philanthropy – Canada, as well as members and chapters.  Her commitment to the fundraising profession, AFP and our members is unparalleled, and her impact in Canada is inspirational.

As part of celebrating Cynthia’s legacy, we are asking for contributions in her name to the AFP Foundation for Philanthropy – Canada General Fund. We will be announcing the total funds raised in her honour during a special presentation following Congress on Wednesday, November 27, 2019, at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre.

If you would like to make a contribution to celebrate Cynthia, you can do so by clicking here or by making a donation on-site at Congress at the AFP Foundation for Philanthropy – Canada photo booth.

"After 24 happy, memorable and productive years with the chapter, I am excited to be starting a new chapter of my life away from AFP (no, I do not mean running another AFP chapter). The success of this chapter has been built on many of the rewarding relationships I have built with the volunteers and staff: relationships that have created memories that will have lasted a lifetime. I have worked with incredible people who have committed themselves to wanting the best for the members of the chapter. I am truly grateful or all of the lifelong friendships I have made through AFP." - Cynthia Quigley
