October is AFP Ethics Awareness Month, and we’re planning an interactive Community of Practice session on October 28 that is sure to get you thinking deeply. This in-person event will be facilitated by Leah Eustace, ACFRE, with further details following soon.

Fundraisers are invited to anonymously send questions and examples of ethical challenges you’ve either faced or wonder about. We’ll change/remove all names and any other identifying aspects before we talk through them as a group with Leah.
