AFP-GPC continues its commitment to providing diversity and inclusiveness programs with a full-day of education and professional development. The day begins with Shades of Philanthropy, an educational seminar developed by Blacks in Philanthropy – South Florida Network, presented by Thamiah Tutt and Reshunda Mahone. An afternoon workshop, presented by Kevin Dow, Chief Operating Officer and Deputy Director of Commerce for the City of Philadelphia, will offer a unique opportunity for interactive and thought provoking dialogue and learning.
During the Shades of Philanthropy session, Thamiah Tutt and Reshunda Mahone will lead a dynamic discussion about engaging various communities (i.e. Black, Latino, Asian, Caribbean, etc.) and the social and cultural dynamics within each of these communities that directly impact volunteer engagement and giving.
The afternoon workshop, presented by Kevin Dow, is limited to 25 participants on a first come first serve basis. Appropriate for Executive Directors and Board Members, as well as Development Officers, this session will build the awareness of participants on the power of diversity and how it can be an advantage to succeeding in your fundraising strategies.
Self awareness as an individual will be explored in the context of “group” and “system” interaction with a correlation of how a conscious awareness of your organization’s specific dynamic can impact your ability to succeed in targeted fundraising strategies.
This workshop is interactive and will be successful only if participants are willing to explore, in a facilitated group process, their individual, group and system “memberships” by race, gender and sexual orientation.
The Networking Lunch is included in all registration costs. Please indicate below if you will be able to join us for lunch.
