About AFP-NYC

The Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) represents nearly 30,000 members in more than 240 chapters throughout the world, working to advance philanthropy through advocacy, research, education, and certification programs.

The New York City Chapter, the founding chapter of The Association of Fundraising Professionals, is a vital and unparalleled source of information and resources for the New York area — from workshops and informal networking opportunities to Fundraising Day in New York, the largest one-day conference in the world on philanthropic topics. We’re dedicated to supporting the uniquely American tradition of giving — and helping to make New York a better place.
