When development professionals are more effective it means more than 3,500 Central Florida nonprofits have the resources for inspiring residents to achieve more, increasing workforce productivity, and returning community members to self-sufficiency.

All three sectors are essential to Central Florida's success - public, private and nonprofit - and each contributes to the community's success in a unique way. AFP represents the nonprofit sector's most critical role - fundraising - because without it quality of life suffers, employee productivity suffers and our neighbors suffer. AFP is making it possible for Central Florida to be the best it can be.

AFP helps development professionals be more effective, faster. Just ask any of our new members about their individual experience prior to finding AFP and what it’s like to be enveloped by professional resources and mentors. Come to a meeting and find out for yourself. The community will be better for it. Trust me.






The Association of Fundraising Professionals is a membership organization that promotes philanthropy and fosters the growth and development of fundraising professionals through advocacy, research, education, and certification. AFP and the AFP Central Florida Chapter require member adherence to a code of ethical standards and practices.

“ Central Florida’s recognized leader in ethical and effective fundraising for those engaged in philanthropy. ”
