Membership Scholarships

To advance our philanthropy profession and help grow chapter membership, we offer membership scholarships to qualified individuals to help members join and remain in AFP.

Scholarships will cover the cost of membership dues for one year (including local chapter dues!) 

Scholarship questions can be directed to Amy Blumenthal at ablumenthal@twbfundraising.com.

The Chapter is pleased to open this opportunity up to active, lapsed, and new members.

Scholarships are funded in part through member support of the AFP Foundation for Philanthropy’s BE the CAUSE campaign.

AFP ICON Scholarships

AFPSEWI’s Scholarship Committee is thrilled to offer three substantial scholarship awards to chapter members to attend the AFP International Fundraising Conference (ICON) in Seattle from April 27-29, 2025. 

Chamberlain Scholarship (1 available) – Covers the cost of conference registration (minus a $10 processing fee) plus $2,000 to use toward travel and lodging. For first-time ICON attendees only. Diversity and financial need are considered but not required.

AFPSEWI Chapter Scholarship (2 available) – Provides a total of $2,000 to be used toward conference registration, travel, and lodging. After paying the registration fee (at the Preview Rate), recipients will have approximately $1,000 to cover travel and lodging. 

Scholarship amounts may not completely cover the cost of your conference experience, and recipients are responsible for any costs over the amount of their award.

Application deadline: Stay tuned for 2025 deadlines!
