The Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) Greater Baton Rouge has been named a 2019 Ten Star GOLD Chapter, offering members the opportunity to connect with colleagues, engage in creative thinking, network with new friends and achieve great results in their work.
Every year, AFP, the largest association of professional fundraisers in the world, honors chapters for achieving goals that align with key objectives in its long-range strategic plan. Chapters receive the Ten Star GOLD Award for performing specific activities designed to increase professionalism within fundraising and public awareness of the importance of philanthropy.
Less than 20 percent of AFP’s 243 chapters earn the Ten Star Gold Chapter recognition, making the AFP of Greater Baton Rouge one of the association’s leading chapters around the world.
