Upcoming AFP Webinars:
Revitalizing Your Development Program, 30 Steps in 30 Days (Jan. 25, 1-2:30 p.m. ET) Many development officers are so relieved when the fiscal year or calendar year comes to an end, they don't even want to think about work over the summer or in January. Why not spend the next month getting ready so you can hit the ground running in the year ahead! In this presentation by fundraising trainer and author Linda Lysakowski, ACFRE, you’ll get strategies for how to assess the success of the past year’s development effort and how to plan to improve effectiveness and efficiency in the year ahead. Register now.
See the 2012 Webinar Schedule!

Each one of us has our own story to tell, and it’s important for all of us to share it.” Learn more about Mark’s fundraising career and his views on diversity in this career profile.
