About AFP Polk County Chapter:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

About National Philanthropy Day:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

National Philanthropy Day (NPD) is a special day set aside to recognize the great contributions of philanthropy — and those people active in the philanthropic community — to the enrichment of our world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

National Philanthropy Day provides an opportunity to reflect on the meaning of giving and all that it has made possible. First held in 1986, NPD celebrates the endless daily contributions individuals and organizations across the world make to countless causes and missions. Last year, more than 100 AFP chapters held NPD events and activities across North America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through NPD, participants are able to show appreciation for all that has been accomplished in the name of giving, as well as show that there is still more to do. It’s our chance to step into the spotlight for a brief moment and remind our communities, our society, and the world that the spirit of giving is alive and well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
