What the Association of Fundraising Professionals Means to Me

By Duke Haddad, Ed.D., CFRE

Career Development: Your Fundraising Career

If anyone decides to make a career out of the fundraising profession, they will quickly realize they need the AFP for career development. We are in a relationship business and need to connect with fellow peers in many ways for a variety of reasons. For the price of membership, you receive an amazing number of benefits; the greatest of which is connectivity with fellow members at all ranges of the career spectrum. I am proud of my long-term association with the AFP. The organization means a great deal to me, and I hope at the end of my career I have represented it well.
