6:00pm – 8:00pm
National Philanthropy Day (NPD) is a special day set aside to promote philanthropy and recognize individuals, organizations and businesses that are inspiring change through their significant impact on nonprofit organizations. Each day, generous benefactors and volunteers make a difference to people across a spectrum of nonprofit organizations from the arts to education to social services and everything in between. The National Philanthropy Day Program is our annual, signature event at which people representing businesses, nonprofits, philanthropists and volunteers come together to celebrate our vibrant philanthropic community. All nonprofit organizations have the opportunity to recognize their Loyal Donors who have made a truly exceptional impact.
This year we are making an exciting change to the NPD format. Instead of a luncheon, we will be holding an evening reception. We will still be honoring our Awardees in each category, but this new format this will allow greater opportunities for conversation, networking and re-connecting! We hope you will join us!

Loyal Donors… Celebrating Our Supporters
As part of National Philanthropy Day (NPD), the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) invites nonprofit organizations to recognize and celebrate additional individuals: loyal donors who support and further the mission of their organization.
How to Select Loyal Donors: During the NPD registration process, nonprofit organizations may submit the names of their Loyal Donors. AFP requests that nonprofits submit only the names of people who will be attending the in-person event. When guest names are sent, Loyal Donor designations can be noted at that time.
If you need assistance in submitting guest names or designating your guests as Loyal Donors, email us at Admin@AFPCincinnati.org.
For questions or more information, contact:
Sydney Kavish, NPD Co-Chair, at kavishsy@foundation.uc.edu or
Phillip James at jamespp@foundation.uc.edu
