Show your people how much you appreciate them by recognizing them as your Partners in Philanthropy (PiPs) at AFP-RI's National Philanthropy Day celebration on November 16 at 5:30pm at the Graduate Providence!

What IS a PiP? A PiP is a person or business who has furthered your non-profit organization's mission through exemplary volunteer contributions, outstanding leadership, and/or significant generosity.
PiPs will be honored in the following ways:

🌟Name, photo, and tribute displayed during the National Philanthropy Day celebration on November 16 at the Graduate;
🌟Photo/logo and written tribute of your PiPs exemplary work in the 2023 digital event program book;
🌟Certificate and Partner in Philanthropy pin;
🌟Special Patner in Philanthropy photo op!

Each organization can honor up to 2 Partners in Philanthropy. A Partner in Philanthropy can be an individual, a couple, a family, a small group, or a business.

You can do this in 4 easy steps:
1) Contact your PiP(s) to let them know you’d like to honor them! Make sure that your PiP is comfortable with this public recognition. And remember to ask for their photo or logo, which you will submit as part of the PiP registration process.
2) Register your PiP(s)!
3) Ask your PiPs to join you at the National Philanthropy Day celebration on November 16.
4) Register yourself and your PiP(s) for the celebration. Registration for each PiP is $50, for AFP-RI members $75, for non-AFP-RI members $95.
