Welcome!

Dear Colleagues,

As the Board President for the Central Virginia Chapter of the Association of Fundraising Professionals, it is my pleasure to welcome you to our Chapter!

My fellow Board members and I look forward to getting to know you better this year as we engage in our monthly membership meetings, special events, and other professional growth opportunities. At both the local level and through AFP Global, there are many resources available to you wherever you are in your fundraising career.

This is an exciting year for our Chapter as we plan a return to in-person events, while still offering a virtual option for our monthly membership meetings. For those of you who are not yet members of our Chapter, now is the perfect time to join! Together, we will learn from experts in the field; network with our peers; celebrate the joy of philanthropy; and advocate for our chosen profession.  

Below, please find a list of links that may be helpful to you as you navigate our Chapter website:

I’m also happy to schedule a time to chat with you to answer questions you may have or just to introduce you to what our Chapter offers. You can reach me at ahaggerty@rpaalliance.com or (804) 592-3372.
