The Association of Fundraising Professionals (formerly the National Society of Fund Raising Executives) is the largest professional fundraising network in the world! And one of the greatest benefits of AFP membership is the opportunity to network - to exchange information with one's peers, to learn from those who are more experienced, and to help those who are just getting started in professional fundraising. AFP membership means you are a part of a professional community that provides the environment for connecting with leaders in philanthropy.
At the national level, benefits fall into three categories: research and practice tools, member-exclusive professional development, and member discounts. All of these components work together to provide members with the best tools possible to become better and more productive fundraisers. Click on the links below to learn more.
