National Philanthropy Day - Association of Fundraising Professionals

Save the Date! National Philanthropy Day
Tuesday, November 23, 2021

Since 1992, members and the Board of the Central Ohio Chapter of the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) have publicly recognized local philanthropic leaders and celebrated their impact in our community through National Philanthropy Day® (NPD).

This day of recognition of personal and corporate impact is the highlight of our chapter’s witness to the broader community. It celebrates the unique partnership of donor and fundraiser. The National Philanthropy Day® celebration has become the highly anticipated ‘event to attend’ in Columbus during November, the traditional month of giving thanks, and is one of the largest in the nation.

This year, as in years past, we look forward to having the distinct honor of paying tribute to those who change our community—and our world—through their philanthropy.

A special note about the Leave a Legacy award: This award is selected by the Charitable Gift Planners of Central Ohio and is presented at the National Philanthropy Day® celebration. The annual nominations process is conducted by CGPCO who can be contacted for details.
