AFP Ottawa’s Future Leaders
Mentorship Program

In partnership with RBC

Thank you for your interest in participating as a mentor in AFP Ottawa’s Future Leaders mentorship program, in partnership with RBC.

This program pairs experienced fundraisers with young people who have an interest in the fundraising industry and non-profit sector. AFP Ottawa’s Future Leaders program centres around Fundraising Day, our chapter’s flagship professional development event, to be held on May 21, 2020.

Mentors and protégés may choose to continue their mentorship activities beyond Fundraising Day on a self-directed basis.

To be selected as a mentor, you must:

• Be a fundraising professional, work in the non-profit sector, or have fundraising as a major component of your role,
• Be a member of AFP Ottawa (you may join AFP Ottawa at the same time as you apply),
• Be available to meet at least once in person with your protégé in advance of AFP Ottawa’s Fundraising Day, AND
• Be available to attend AFP Ottawa’s Fundraising Day on May 21, 2020 with your protégé and assist them with networking.

Benefits of becoming a mentor:

• You’ll receive a 50% discount on your registration for AFP Ottawa’s 2020 Fundraising Day (includes half-day Executive Track but does NOT include pre-event Master Class)
• You’ll be invited to attend the official Fundraising Day pre-reception on May 20^th, 2020
• It feels fantastic to give back and help develop the next generation of leaders in our industry!

Deadline for applications is midnight on Monday March 9, 2020. If you have any questions about the program or about your application, please contact Holly Paulin, AFP Ottawa Board of Directors, at afpottawa.mentorship@gmail.com.

Separate registration for Fundraising Day is required. Successful candidates will be notified and provided with a promo code upon acceptance into the program. AFP Ottawa’s Future Leaders mentorship program exists outside of and in addition to existing mentorship relationships. Mentors may not request a specific protégé and will not be paired with an existing protégé, and all pairings will be done by committee based on mutual interests.
