Coffee Chat is a gathering for non-profit development professionals. Anyone with fundraising duties in their job description
- or interest in breaking into the field of nonprofit fundraising-- is welcome!
Join us for an organic conversation about fundraising best practices. Development professionals can share what is on their mind
and get input from the group on current roadblocks or struggles.
Coffee Chat is the 2nd Tuesday of each month and is FREE to attend. You don’t have to register or be a member of AFP. Just bring a notebook and a willingness
to chat about fundraising and join the discussion!
