In recent years, members of the Greater Tri-States chapter made contributions exceeding the goal of AFP International to the Be the Cause Campaign. We also have had 100% participation by our Board of Directors!
Thank you to all those who contribute!
Each year, AFP Global challenges our chapter to a low and high goal each calendar year. The AFP Greater Tri-States Chapter will receive 15% from the first dollar raised, 25% if we meet the low goal and 100% Board participation, and 35% if we meet the high goal and 100% Board participation. This comes in the form of a grant to our local chapter. With your support we have reached that goal. |
This campaign provides various benefits including funds for professional development and training, most notably funding of the Chamberlain scholarship. The Chamberlain scholarship allows our chapter to help send one chapter member to the AFP International conference each year. Our chapter receives 15% back from the first dollar raised, with the opportunity to receive up to 35% if we meet our goal above and also reach 100% Board participation.

- We receive a grant equal to 15% of total $ raised no matter what. ($148.60. from 2024)
- We receive a 25% grant if we meet our low goal, and have 100% board participation.

The ‘Be The Cause’ campaign also supports the Chamberlain Scholarship program nationally, which allows one Greater Tri-States Chapter member the opportunity to attend the AFP International Conference (this year in Seattle in April) at a substantially reduced cost each year. The campaign also supports other scholarships, in addition to the Chamberlain Scholarship. Below are images that show where 2025 gifts went and where your 2025 gift will go.
