AFP Nova Scotia and the Community Foundation of Nova Scotia are delighted to host a gathering for National Philanthropy Day on November 15th at the LeBrun Community Centre from 9:30am-11:00am ADT.

Recognizing the significance of moving beyond passive participation in equity learning, the goal of this event is to inspire action toward integrating and promoting these learnings within philanthropy. By wholeheartedly embedding equity and inclusion as core values in our philanthropic work, we will strengthen the social good sector's capacity to initiate enduring and impactful change.

AFP Nova Scotia is pleased to offer an IDEA rate for our National Philanthropy Day celebration as part of our commitment to inclusion, diversity, equity, and access (IDEA) in the fundraising sector. Current and future fundraisers/applicants from BIPOC, 2SLGBTQ+, or other under-represented communities may purchase this ticket.

Join us for coffee, conversation, and celebration of the nonprofit sector this National Philanthropy Day!
