I hope that you find our recently redesigned website easy to navigate to help you find what you need or to learn more about one of the most dynamic AFP chapters in the United States!

I know that’s a pretty forward thing to state, but I really think it true. Here’s why:

We are celebrating our 20th anniversary a a Chapter in 2009 and membership has never been higher – over 130 and counting.
In 2008 North Central Ohio received its first ever designation as an AFP Ten Star Chapter, one of only 75 in the world. There are 196 chartered AFP chapters.
The Chapter has received the International Association’s Abel Hanson Award for Excellence in Communication.
More people attended our professional development programs than ever before last year.
Thanks to excellent stewardship and successful event organization over the last several years, the AFP NCOH Chapter’s treasury is very healthy, allowing the chapter to invest more in our serving our members.

The fundraising profession is well served here in North Central Ohio by a dedicated, hard working Board and effective committee members. The networking opportunities are simply tremendous both personally and professionally.

If you are not a member, consider becoming one. If you are a member, consider becoming more active. Attend more meetings, volunteer on a committee attend our events. So many opportunities, so little time!

The more you invest, the more you will receive.

Most sincerely yours,

Larry Becker, CFRE
President, AFP North Central Ohio Chapter
