We're Stronger Together
Philanthropy Day is a breakfast program where we bring together fundraisers and nonprofit leaders to discuss the issues facing them on a daily basis, with speakers who offer real world solutions based on their own experience. This year, our focus will turn to the power of collaboration and how working together will help our Long Island organizations survive in a time of great uncertainty.
This year, Philanthropy Day takes place on Friday, November 7 at the Crest Hollow Country Club in Woodbury, starting with coffee and networking, followed by a panel discussion and robust Q&A session, with a brief awards presentation and more networking.
Join us and enjoy networking and learning with your colleagues. Celebrate National Philanthropy Day at a special event presented by AFP Long Island - by fundraisers, for fundraisers.

What is National Philanthropy Day?
National Philanthropy Day® is a special day celebrated in November. The purpose of this day is to recognize the great contributions of philanthropy—and those people active in the philanthropic community—to the enrichment of our world.
NPD was originally conceived of and organized by Douglas Freeman in the 1980s, and the first official events held in 1986 after President Reagan signed the official NPD proclamation. The day provides an opportunity to reflect on the meaning of giving and all that it has made possible. NPD celebrates the endless daily contributions individuals and organizations across the world make to countless causes and missions.
AFP chapters hold Philanthropy Day events and activities across North America.
