The Association of Fundraising Professionals NEPA Chapter mentoring program exists to provide chapter members with the opportunity for mentor/protégé paring. The objective of this initiative is to enhance and develop expert and quality development professionals in our region.

As with any career, volunteer mentors offer guidance, care, compassion, professionalism and a level of excellence to help progress the protégés career and understanding of philanthropy in their chosen field of fundraising.

Goals

• To provide quality on-going educational opportunities for our membership.

• To strengthen the skills of the Protégé and support professional and career development by identifying and working on specific areas of her or his skills.

• To enhance the professional abilities of the mentors through their efforts in guiding, sharing, and coaching.

• To foster collegial relationships between seasoned development professionals and those new to the field.

• To provide mid-level professionals with the opportunity to expand their skill set to new areas of development and leadership.

If you would like to be paired with a mentor please contact our Chapter Leadership.
