The Association of Fundraising Professionals Long Island Chapter has been named a 2024 Ten Star Chapter. We are very proud of this designation and our long history as a Ten Star Chapter.
Every year, AFP, the largest association of professional fundraisers in the world, honors chapters for achieving goals that align with key objectives in its long-range strategic plan. Chapters receive the Ten Star Award for performing specific activities designed to increase professionalism within fundraising and public awareness of the importance of philanthropy. Just one-third of all AFP chapters are named Ten Star Chapters, so the AFP Long Island chapter is one of a select group of chapters to earn this honor.
Ten Star Chapters are recognized at the AFP International Conference on Fundraising (ICON). Chapters also earn the privilege of displaying the Ten Star logo on their website, newsletters and stationary.
Criteria for the award are determined by AFP Global. It's not an easy designation to earn, and we are proud of this advanced credential!
