The Association of Fundraising Professionals Tampa Bay Chapter has honored leadership in philanthropy in Tampa Bay
through its annual awards program since 1989. These awards celebrate the
outstanding contribution of time, leadership and financial support of a
special group of community members and organizations who set new
benchmarks of excellence in the acts of giving and volunteering.
Ever since President Ronald Reagan first
proclaimed November 15th as National Philanthropy Day® over 30 years
ago, communities across the globe gather to celebrate ethical and
effective philanthropy and recognize those engaged in charitable giving
and volunteerism.
We encourage you to educate your team and
board of directors of the importance of this day and involve them in
your nomination process.
Once all nominations have been received, our
panel of non-member judges – a group of like-minded community volunteers
from diverse backgrounds made up of business and civic leaders and past
nominees – will review all submissions and select an honoree in each
category based upon the criteria detailed HERE.
