Please join us for the first-ever AFP South Sound's National Philanthropy Day Awards on November 15th, from 5-6:30pm at Tacoma Community College’s Art Gallery.
We will celebrate and recognize individuals in our local AFP South Sound community that are doing exemplary work to help our community be the best it can be. Local AFP chapters across the globe have an annual event on November 15, and we are excited to participate this year.
The goal of our National Philanthropy Day celebration is to highlight the meaningful work of individuals in our region and to shine a light on those who are leading by example in our community. There are five award categories that will be given out at the event: Amazing Unsung Hero, IDEA Champion, Outstanding Change Maker, and GRIT Award.

Following the Summit will be an in-person no-host happy hour from 3:00 - 5:00pm at 7 Seas Brewery. It is a short 7 minute walk from UW Tacoma.
