Professional Development Assistance Grant

AAFRE recognizes the financial limitations of fundraising organizations and works hard to help their members overcome obstacles to fund development education. To alleviate pressures, The Professional Development Assistance Grant was created to provide financial aid for members wishing to attend educational conferences or workshops for the purpose of improving their fundraising skills.

AAFRE members may apply once a year for financial support that goes towards registration fees. Up to $500 per member organization is available. Members who are approved for financial assistance must provide a written report within 30 days of completing the professional development program.

Please see the application form and report guideline for more details about the available financial support.
