Diversity Fellows
AFP Massachusetts is committed to encouraging greater numbers of persons from racial, ethnically or culturally diverse backgrounds who are underrepresented in the development field to become active members of our organization. That’s why, each year, the Chapter sponsors a Diversity Fellows Program. Through a selection process, 10 fellows are chosen for a two-year program that includes AFP membership, access to educational opportunities and a mentoring arrangement with a senior professional, among other benefits.
By gaining access to AFP resources and the individual and collective professional expertise of Chapter members, fellows can build both their own professional fundraising skills and their organization’s capacity.
The deadline for applications is October 7, 2011.
