For the first time in the history of our chapter AFP NL has been awarded the AFP IDEA CHAMPION DESIGNATION!! Strategic Plan is the blueprint for organizational growth and success in the future. For the strategic plan to be effective, it must be implemented through a partnership between the AFP Global and the local chapters. As each chapter contributes its part to the overall Strategic Plan, AFP will continue to meet its goals and continue to advance philanthropy and the
fundraising profession around the world. One of the specific goals in the plan requires AFP to embrace and engage diverse individuals, groups and organizations within the fundraising profession. In order to be recognized as a Friends of Diversity Chapter, local chapters must have an extensive plan in place to encourage diversity within their chapter membership and within the fundraising development profession throughout their region.
