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. November 15 has been designated the national permanent date for NPD, however, the Treasure Coast Chapter holds their local event on the closest Friday to this date.

NPD
provides an opportunity to reflect on the meaning of giving and all that it has made possible. First held in 1986, the event celebrates the endless daily contributions individuals, corporations and organizations across the world make to countless causes and missions. In 2009, more than 150 AFP chapters held NPD events and activities. 2009 also marked the 15th year our local chapter held an NPD event to honor those who have contributed to the betterment of the Treasure Coast through their contributions for the non-profits organizations in the area.
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 a chance for AFP to step into the spotlight for a brief moment and remind our local communities, our society and the world, that the spirit of giving is alive and well.
NPD is registered with the Patent and Trademark Office of the U. S. Department of Commerce and is coordinated by the local chapters of the Association of Fundraising Professionals.
