Chapters
"AFP is the largest community of professional fundraisers in the world and is involved in every facet of fundraising: education, advocacy, ethics and public awareness. Our chapters are the heart and soul of our association. It is at the chapter level where the most essential activities – programming, recruitment, training and resource development – of our organization take place."
- Paulette Maehara CFRE, CAE President & Chief Executive Officer

Collegiate Chapters
AFP's collegiate chapters help grow the next generation of fundraisers. Collegiate chapters are required annually to assess needs on their campuses and develop projects to address those needs. In addition, they must be sponsored by an existing AFP chapter that will work closely with its collegiate partner on a variety of initiatives. Click here for Collegiate Chapter Program Materials.
