One Question. Many Perspectives.

There's no single answer to the biggest questions in fundraising. That's why we're asking members of the AFPNYC Board of Directors to share their unique perspectives.

In this installment, three board members weigh in on our sixth question of this series:

What is a favorite quote or lesson from a mentor?

While each response reflects a different experience, together they offer a broader perspective on the opportunities, interests, and evolving possibilities within our profession today.

Swipe through to see what they had to say, and then join the conversation.

Happy Boss’s Day!

Today, we’re celebrating the leaders who inspire, support, and empower teams to turn compassion into action and mission into meaningful impact.

In the nonprofit sector, leadership is about more than reaching goals. It’s about lifting others up, championing a cause, and creating positive change in our communities.

To all the nonprofit leaders, executive directors, supervisors, and team leads who show up every day with purpose: thank you for leading with heart.
