Welcome
Dear Colleagues and Friends,
The Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) Massachusetts
Chapter is celebrating its 25th Anniversary Year. Planning
for this year’s Annual Conference on Philanthropy is underway,
and the event is scheduled for December 2, 2008 at the Boston
Marriott Copley Place. The 2008 event promises to deliver
an extraordinary educational program that examines the latest
trends, models, and ideas in fundraising. With more than
1,300 participants from over 600 leading nonprofit institutions
in the New England area expected to attend, the AFP Massachusetts
Chapter hopes that you will join us as a sponsor and exhibitor
As the largest and most comprehensive conference for fundraisers
in the Northeast, the Annual Conference represents an opportunity
for your company to be a visible partner in the day’s activities. Various
sponsorship and exhibit opportunities provide you a chance to
heighten brand awareness, build and strengthen existing relationships
with key decision makers, and increase sales of your product or
service within this sector. Our attached brochure details
these opportunities, and I encourage you to become involved.
Read what some of our past conference sponsors have said:
“The AFP MA Conference is the best conference out there! Since
the first conference in 1983, Development Guild/DDI employees
have attended each year. We look forward to the next 25
years as well.”
Bill Weber
Development Guild/DDI
“Convio is pleased to continue its support of
the AFP MA Conference. The conference is a great opportunity
for non profits to network, exchange best practices and learn
from industry leaders. As the influence and pace of the internet
increases, this conference becomes critical for non profits who
want to take relationships with their supporters to new levels.”
Fred Waugh, Vice President, Marketing, Convio Inc
The 25th Anniversary AFP Conference guarantees to be a rewarding
day for attendees, sponsors, and exhibitors. We hope you
take advantage of one of our sponsorship packages and become involved
in this great day.
