Please join us for our March online Zoom AFP Alaska Chapter Lunch and Learn with guest presenter Laurie Wolf, CFRE presenting about:
The Nonprofit Climate in Alaska - what has changed, what has not since COVID-19?
Earthquakes, budgets, COVID oh my. It just keeps coming but we can do this work joyfully and with great support. Join us and Laurie Wolf, President and CEO of The Foraker Group, for an inspiring conversation about what we know is still true in our profession, what 2020 taught us and what it will take to keep moving forward together. Together we will reflect and find inspiration as we explore a little bit of data, remember a few key ideas, and take time to get connected with each other
(Join Laurie Wolf and fellow AFP Alaska colleagues for this interactive session, which will include break out sessions to engage with your peers, discuss experiences, successes, challenges...)
