Welcome to the AFP Cape Fear Chapter Website

Thanks to the leadership of those who saw the need for a group of fundraising professionals, the AFP Cape Fear Region Chapter was formed in late 2006. Since then, the chapter has grown each year both fiscally and with an increase in membership. Today we strive to meet the needs of all fundraising professonals in Southeastern North Carolina. Our goals are to bring peers together, increase our professional development through educational programs, and utilize the resources of AFP International to strengthen each of our organizations.

As a chapter, our members abide by a Code of Ethical Standards and Principles and the Donor Bill of Rights. These guidelines help us continue to be the professional fundraisers we are. As we move forward to create a chapter that will be sustainable and meet both member and guest's needs, we encourage you to be active.

We invite you to become/renew your membership, attend monthly programs, volunteer, speak at a monthly meeting and share your feedback on our progress. This chapter will succeed with the help and positive influence only you can provide. Thank you for your interest and we look forward to working with you to make the AFP Cape Fear Region Chapter a leader and resource for fundraising professionals.
