Thanks to all who joined AFP and PPGC for the Emerging Philanthropy Conference and National Philanthropy Day events. The conference had a great lineup of amazing speakers both local and from other parts of the country. The conversations were educational and lively and I'm sure everyone learned a few new tips or tricks or takeaways to implement at your office.
As fundraisers, the last few months of the year are very busy. I encourage you to take a moment to reflect on the blessings you have during this giving season and not get so preoccupied with the busy stuff. Your acts of kindness are appreciated by the people, places and things we are honored to support.
To celebrate the end of a crazy year, mark your calendar for Thursday, December 9th for our AFP Holiday Party at Shannopin Country Club. Help us celebrate the accomplishments of your peers and spend some time together.
To that end - let our hearts be full of both, thanks and giving! Thanks for giving your time, talent and treasure for the betterment of our communities. Enjoy some time with family and friends - I hope to see you in December at Shannopin Country Club.
Best regards,
Jodie Tabano
