AFP
is the largest professional fundraising network in the world! And one
of the greatest benefits of AFP membership is the opportunity to
network -- to exchange information with one's peers, to learn from those
who are more experienced, and to help those who are just getting started
in professional fund raising.
AFP membership means
you are part of a professional community that provides the environment
for contacts with leaders of the profession throughout North America and
the world.
