2026 Philanthropy Awards Sponsorship
The Association of Fundraising Professionals Oregon & SW Washington Chapter invites you to join its annual National Philanthropy Day (NPD) event to publicly recognize the impact of fundraising professionals, nonprofit organizations, and philanthropic individuals and businesses within the Oregon & SW Washington region. Each year, we celebrate the outstanding philanthropic work that makes a difference and creates a lasting critical impact in our community.
The State of Philanthropy Forum serves as the opening session of National Philanthropy Day Awards Luncheon. It will bring together nonprofit leaders, funders, philanthropists, and community partners to discuss trends, challenges, and opportunities shaping our sector.
The Awards Luncheon presented by the OSU Foundation will celebrate individuals and organizations whose leadership and generosity are helping address those challenges and creating impact in our communities. Together, the forum and awards create a meaningful and engaging experience than either component could provide on its own. This page includes sponsorship opportunities available to support the National Philanthropy Day event and the benefits your business/organization will receive.
