Professional fundraisers can be found at the heart of every charitable organization. We connect community needs to people who care and can make a difference in the lives of others. We are agents of change for the betterment of our community and our world. Our work touches, changes and sometimes even saves countless lives in ways of which we may even not be aware.

                                   

As the largest community of professional fundraisers in the world, the Association of Fundraising Professionals has more than 30,000 members within 207 chapters. The AFP Lowcountry Chapter offers professionals a wide range of educational, networking and mentoring programs that support and enrich each member's professional experience and skills. Its goals are to:
