AFP Alaska Chapter Event: National Philanthropy Day 2022

Egan Civic and Convention Center, Anchorage, Alaska

*Virtual option will be available

National Philanthropy Day is a special day set aside to recognize the great contributions of philanthropy—and those active in the philanthropic community—to the enrichment of Alaska and the world beyond. The conference draws nonprofit leaders, board members, supporters, and affiliates from across the state who come to discover best practices and trends in philanthropy and to help create and execute sustainable, long-term, and ethical fundraising practices in their organizations. 

This year’s conference keynote guest is international speaker Marcy Heim, CFRE.  Over the course of twenty plus years of in-the-trenches major gift fundraising and management at the University of Wisconsin Foundation, Marcy developed a deep respect and energy for the impact and joy philanthropy brings to our organizations, institutions and communities. Now, she coaches and shares the mindset and authentic relationship-building actions so you, too, can experience major gift success and have the resources to compose your good world… and enjoy your life.

A key part of Alaska’s National Philanthropy Day is the annual Awards Luncheon, an inspiring event where individuals and organizations are honored for their philanthropic work and contributions in Alaska. Attendees celebrate the powerful stories of notable individuals, organizations, volunteers, and young people who make a difference in our communities and state through their service and generosity.
