Falling Into Fundraising Series

Being a fundraiser is a fulfilling career that offers personal gratification while also serving to uplift, support, and change communities. However, for many fundraisers, their path into the field was unintentional or by accident. In the Falling Into Fundraising series, AFP Global explores how women from diverse backgrounds got into the profession and why we should begin presenting this work as a viable career option from an early age.
