If you are considering engaging a fundraising consultancy you need look no further. The AFC membership list is peer vetted and references are followed up every two years. Members' compliance with the Association's rigorous Code of Practice is reaffirmed annually. The result is a list on which prospective clients can rely to provide a choice of highly skilled, experienced, dedicated and successful consultancies. How to select a consultant (PDF document).
If you are a fundraising consultant wondering if your firm qualifies for AFC membership, please study the membership criteria and the Code of Practice. We welcome applications from consultants who are able to rise above their day-to-day professional and commercial challenges to join in addressing issues of common concern. We believe that by putting our clients' interests first, we best serve our own interests and the interests of the profession. Membership application form (PDF document).
AFC member firms can offer their employees and sub-contracted consultants the opportunity to become CFRE candidates at reduced fees.
Whether you are a client, or a prospective member, I hope that this site will give you a better understanding of the vital role played by the AFC.
