We’re Out To Change The World.

Welcome!

AFP Golden Gate members work on a great range of missions and in organizations of all sizes—a rich mix of professionals. The Bay Area is one of the most robust nonprofit communities in the world. Meet your peers at AFP Golden Gate!

 
AFP Global recently presented AFP Golden Gate the 2020 Ten Star Gold Award for outstanding achievements and dedication to increasing professionalism within fundraising and public awareness of philanthropy, as well as the 2020 IDEA Champion designation for outstanding achievements and dedication to increasing inclusion by seeking, embracing and engaging diverse individuals, groups and organizations with a broad representation of experiences, perspectives, thoughts and cultures within the fundraising profession.

 

Welcome to AFP Golden Gate!

We are member-driven and volunteer-led.

We are practitioners teaching each other.

We are committed to the field and to the missions and communities we serve.

And we do whatever it takes to create the better world we seek.

As fundraisers and non-profit leaders, we are in a position to help bring our communities together, to help address systemic racism, to protect our democracy, to nurture our planet, to bring joy and beauty where we need it most.

Our community here in the Bay Area is so incredibly rich with talent, diversity, creativity and ingenuity. And together we serve organizations that impact millions of people and places here and around the world. It’s more important than ever that you have the support you need to serve your mission.

I hope to see you (virtually for now) at one of our upcoming events and programs.
 
Elizabeth Warner, AFP GG Chapter President
