Benefits

We’re committed to advancing philanthropy, together.

We believe that the size of your practice shouldn’t limit your access to information, resources and a national network of colleagues. Our mission at APC is simple, we want to elevate the practice and business of philanthropic consulting so that both your business and your clients thrive!

APC membership will give you access to the following educational, collegial and tactical resources:

• Education Forums are held twice a year and focus on informing, educating and connecting our members and guests. All APC Educational Forums provide pre-approved CFRE continuing education credits.
• The Resource Library is accessible from the APC website and contains member-shared documents and tools useful for both client work and managing your practice.
