Leadership in Philanthropy: AFP Central Iowa Philanthropy Day 2023 Honoree Panel

Gather for lunch with your AFP of Central Iowa colleagues and take away information every fundraising professional should know. Enjoy an opportunity to engage with and hear from the 2023 National Philanthropy Day honorees. You saw them honored in November 2023. Now, hear more about their views on philanthropy and giving back to our community. Scott Raecker , Executive Director of the Robert D. and Billie Ray Center at Drake University,  will facilitate a thought-provoking discussion about what inspires each awardee to say “yes” and receive suggestions each has for being more effective and successful as fundraisers. Guests will gain valuable insights directly from these leading donors and community volunteers about what they think about being a leader in philanthropy really means. There will be time following the panel discussion for questions and answers with panel attendees. The 2023 Honorees Panel includes: Jose Luis Hernandez - Outstanding Individual Philanthropist John Currier, F&G - Outstanding Small Corporate/Foundation Philanthropy Doug West - Outstanding Volunteer Fundraiser Brenlyn Knutson (represented by her mother, Melissa) - Outstanding Youth in Philanthropy Parking: Ample free parking is available.
