AFP DFW Philanthropy in Action Conference

For the last year, I have co-chaired the AFP DFW Philanthropy in Action Conference alongside Michael Schwerin, CFRE - AFP Greater Dallas Chapter’s chair. I’m still trying to catch my breath from the conference last week and seeing over 500+ attendees gather in one setting(!!!), but man it was so amazing to soak up all sorts of knowledge from our nonprofit leaders 🤓 And working alongside brilliant, funny, and determined fundraisers in our communities was an absolute joy. I’m looking forward to serving as next years chair on behalf of AFP Fort Worth Metro Chapter. If you’re interested in learning more about the conference, feel free to reach out!

This Sunday we are reminiscing on a wonderful 2024 Philanthropy in Action conference. Rhea Wong closed out the conference with helpful tips and a laugh! Thank you to M. Gale for being the Presenting Sponsor for the conference! #afpdfw #afpdfw24 #afpdfw2024

Proud to rep the gift planning track with Kelsey Picken, PhD, CFRE, CSPG and Cathy Reagan Sheffield on the first day of the annual AFP DFW Philanthropy in Action Conference. Looking forward to tomorrow’s presentations!

I appreciate all of the curious souls who bravely joined me this morning for my latest presentation, “Warming up the cold call: How to keep the conversation going when talking about death.” Thank you to the folks organizing the AFP DFW Philanthropy in Action Conference for including this important dialogue to help expand our ability to better shape meaningful conversations, benefitting both our donors and our non-profit organizations. #deathpositivity #plannedgiving #legacy #afpdfw
