As part of an intentional effort to bring critically needed racial diversity and multiple perspectives to AFP-RI's membership, we are in the midst of reformulating the work of the scholarships and awards committee to reflect our commitment to the values of IDEA.
We have just finalized the committee and are in the process of reviewing and redesigning the mission, vision, and processes. A major focus of the work is to award ten scholarships to BIPOC fundraising professionals this year and next, which will dramatically increase the overall racial diversity of the organization. We will have information about the scholarships, including the revised application, online by early November, so please check back then.
