The AFP Greater Detroit Chapter (GDC) is thriving because of active and motivated members like you! I am thankful for all you do for the chapter and the surrounding community. Without mission driven fundraisers where would our community, state and world be?! Thank you!
The chapter is in very good hands moving forward with Tricia Brosnahan as incoming President. Tricia, best wishes and thank you for taking on this very important role.
Congratulations to the new AFP-GDC Board Members and the 2018 Committee Chairs, your service/leadership is so appreciated. 2018 is looking so bright!
