“Receiving the AFP Arkansas Chapter's Chamberlain Scholarship was an incredible opportunity for both professional and personal growth. Attending AFP ICON allowed me to learn from fundraising leaders across the country, explore emerging trends and strategies, and build meaningful connections with nonprofit professionals from many different backgrounds and organizations.
From sessions on donor engagement and ethics to conversations with vendors and fellow fundraisers, every part of the experience strengthened my understanding of how we can better serve our communities through philanthropy. I’m deeply grateful to AFP Arkansas, the AFP Foundation, and the generous supporters who make this scholarship possible. I would strongly encourage others to apply for this opportunity in the future.”
