(Arlington, Virginia) The Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP), the largest association of fundraising professionals in the world, has announced a continued strategic partnership with Bloomerang, a leading provider of donor and volunteer management software.

Bloomerang is the industry’s leading donor, volunteer, and fundraising management platform for thousands of small and medium-sized nonprofits. Through this continued partnership with AFP, Bloomerang works to advance the fundraising profession by providing accessible technology, free educational resources, and – with the combined power of Qgiv – a focus on creating an all-in-one giving platform to help nonprofits expand their fundraising efforts. In addition to providing educational content and thought leadership at AFP ICON 2024, Bloomerang supports the Fundraising Effectiveness Project (FEP) and participates on the AFP Research Committee for FEP.

“Bloomerang has been a valuable partner for several years, providing the AFP community with trends and best practices gleaned from their research and case studies,” said Chris Amos, senior director, business development for AFP. “We’re excited to welcome them back in 2024 as an Impact Partner and Gold Sponsor of AFP ICON. Their continued presence at this event is a value-add for our members who benefit from the education they provide, and the opportunity to explore how Bloomerang’s solutions can help them effectively manage donor relationships for increased impact. All of us at AFP are so pleased to continue to work with Bloomerang and look forward to our partnership in the year ahead.”

“Bloomerang’s mission is to build a world inspired by giving,” says Dennis Fois, chief executive officer of Bloomerang. “Our product offerings are only one part of the equation. This partnership expands our ability to share trends, best practices, and actionable tips from our research studies and customer insights with the global fundraising community. Working together with AFP Global strengthens our shared ability to empower nonprofits with the tools and resources they need to maximize impact in their communities. We look forward to continued collaboration with AFP Global to help nonprofits reach their potential and achieve their missions."

The AFP Partners Program provides participating organizations with year-round opportunities to engage the fundraising community and pursue corporate social responsibility through tangential support of the causes for which they work. Through thought leadership, marketing, content, and professional development channels, AFP Partners position themselves as industry leaders committed to advancing philanthropy and ethical fundraising worldwide. Their financial and programmatic support also enables AFP to develop highly competent fundraisers and educate the public on the industry’s ability to fuel societal change in critical arenas like education, healthcare, community development, equity and inclusion, and countless other missions.
