The Association of Fundraising Professionals is THE membership organization for fundraising professionals. Timely articles, a wealth of resources, and strong support for professionals at every level of their careers. Check out all AFP has to offer at www.afpnet.org.
And, if you haven't already done so, sign up for AFP's Massachusetts Chapter Conference at www.afpma2009.com.
The New England Museum Association is THE resource for museum professionals. Historical societies and museums dedicated to telling the stories of our past require a different set of tools in their toolbox than colleges and universities. NEMA understands that. Their programs and thoughtful research provide executive directors, curators, and development professionals with specialized assistance. Take a look at their website at www.nemanet.org.
NEMA's annual conference is next week (November 11 - 13, 2009). If you haven't already taken a look at the program, you should. The conference program is online at http://www.nemanet.org/conf09/index.htm. I'll be there as an exhibitor and a presenter. I hope you will stop by my booth in the exhibit hall.
