(Arlington, VA) The Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP), the largest association of fundraising professionals in the world, has announced a new strategic partnership with Raisely, a leading fundraising platform.  

Raisely is a purpose-driven fundraising platform that empowers charities to build, launch, and scale online campaigns without the high costs or technical barriers that have long limited their impact. Since its founding in 2016, Raisely has helped more than 3,800 charities around the world raise over $1 billion through 19,000 campaigns, engaging 5.5 million donors. A certified B Corp and carbon-neutral company, Raisely is guided by its commitment to accessibility, equity, and social good—using technology to help nonprofits change the world.

“Raisely’s mission to make powerful fundraising technology accessible to every charity—regardless of size or resources—aligns with AFP’s vision of empowering fundraisers and advancing the impact of philanthropy around the world,” said Chris Amos, senior director, business development for AFP.  “Their commitment to social good, equity, and innovation makes them an ideal partner in helping our members grow their fundraising capacity and deepen their donor relationships.”

“We’re proud to join AFP in empowering fundraisers who are changing the world,” said Alex Arrington, director of brand marketing at Raisely. “Nonprofits using Raisely have already raised over $1 billion globally, and this partnership allows us to help even more fundraising professionals customize, create and launch fundraising campaigns that convert.”

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.
