National Philanthropy Day 2020

Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble. -Rep. John Lewis

In a year of unprecedented change and disruption, it is most important to come together to recognize those that have supported our communities and causes, and helped make the struggle more bearable. Help the Association of Fundraising Professionals, Santa Barbara and Ventura Counties Chapter identify those that dedicate their time, talent, and treasure to making the world a better place through philanthropy. Then join us at this year's online National Philanthropy Day celebration where we will announce and honor these special individuals and organizations.

First held locally in 1987, National Philanthropy Day recognizes the great contributions of philanthropy - and those people active in the philanthropic community who have enriched our world. It also provides an opportunity to reflect on the meaning of giving and all that is has made possible

 


WHAT IS NATIONAL PHILANTHROPY DAY?
National Philanthropy Day (NPD) acknowledges the entire spectrum of services provided by the nonprofit community and recognizes the profound impact that philanthropy has on the fabric of society. Each year, AFP chapters around the nation honor individuals and groups who, through their hard work and dedication, have enhanced philanthropy, their communities, and the world.

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.

Sponsors of National Philanthropy Day gain visibility and increased brand awareness through logo and material presence at the event, in media outreach and materials. As many as 300 community leaders from business, government and nonprofit sectors attend. Sponsoring this event highlights YOUR commitment to support philanthropy in our local communities.
