Dear Friends,
This marks my final president’s message for the year and it’s been a privilege and honor to have served the AFP Greater Dallas Chapter in this capacity. My gratitude goes out to our chapter board for its support, energy and expertise to offer educational programming and networking events throughout the year. I am thankful for the growth and opportunities we’ve provided our members and our nonprofit community.
I thank our members and those who have supported our AFP Now campaign to date. We grew our membership exponentially this year as many are returning to the nonprofit sector and seeking greater connection within AFP. Thank you for striving to make our community a better place to work, live, and serve. May we continue to grow.
As one year ends and a new one starts, I wish for you joy and a prosperous New Year.
