Scholarships

Each year, AFP Vancouver Island offers two scholarship opportunities designed to support your professional growth.

Chamberlain Scholarship

Offered through AFP Global, this scholarship provides complimentary registration to the AFP 2026 ICON Conference. It is a wonderful opportunity to connect with fundraising professionals from around the world and gain fresh insights to strengthen your practice.

John Saunders Scholarship

Our chapter is proud to offer the John Saunders Scholarship, which provides $500 to help offset travel costs to the conference.

Together, these scholarships make attending ICON more accessible and rewarding. In addition, the recipient will be invited to share their key learnings with our Vancouver Island membership at a networking event following the conference—ensuring that the benefits of this experience ripple throughout our community.

How to Apply

Applications for this scholarship open late fall.
