As part of our "Fundraising While" series and our commitment to Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Access (IDEA), the Association of Fundraising Professionals Greater Arizona Chapter invites you to join us for a special Hispanic Heritage Month program: “Fundraising While Latino.”

This virtual panel will highlight the voices and experiences of Latino fundraisers and funders, exploring cultural competency, donor engagement strategies, and the importance of representation in philanthropy. Panelists will share insights from their own journeys and offer practical tools for advancing equity and inclusion in fundraising.

Whether you’re a fundraiser, nonprofit leader, or community partner, you’ll leave with inspiration and actionable strategies for engaging Latino donors and strengthening your fundraising practice.
