What's the difference between the Greater Dallas Chapter AFP Now! Campaign and AFP International's Be the Cause?
The answer is, 70% of your donation to this chapter's
AFP Now! annual fund campaign stays in Dallas and we send 30% to the AFP International Foundation. This means that we have more for scholarships and programs. The Greater Dallas AFP Chapter is a non-profit membership organization. Only $50 of membership dues paid to AFP International come back to our chapter. This means we need your support.
Our
AFP Now! goal is a modest one of $8,500. Currently, we have donations and pledges for $4,275.07. The Dallas chapter is a large chapter with over 400 members, and yet to date only 28 of us have contributed to
AFP Now!
If every member gives $25 to support our chapter, we will easily meet and even exceed our goal.
Anyone who makes a donation of any size by December 10, 2015 will be entered into a drawing to be held the next day at our annual Holiday Luncheon for an iPad Mini donated by Madeleine Crouch & Co., Inc.
Kudos to those members who have made a monthly credit card pledge. $10 or $20 a month is more manageable for many of us, but any amount will be gratefully received. We thank all those who have invested in their chapter by generously donating to
AFP Now!
Sincerely,
Diana Marquis, CFRE
2015 Greater Dallas AFP President
