?? What’s Your Legacy? ?? As fundraisers and community leaders, we spend our days helping others create their legacies. But how often do we stop to think about our own? Join us for a powerful joint meeting with Spirit of Giving and Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) Palm Beach Chapter on March 18, 2025, featuring Dr. Arthur Snyder, President Emeritus of Indiana Institute of Technology. Dr. Snyder will lead an insightful discussion on how our daily actions shape the legacy we leave behind—both personally and professionally. ?? Legacy isn’t just about wealth—it’s about the seeds we plant for the future. ?? Research shows that while many of us think about legacy, few have an action plan. ?? This session will inspire you to shape your personal and professional legacy with intention. ?? This event is fully sponsored, and admission is FREE! ?? Save the date: March 18, 2025 ?? Boca Raton Downtown Library Tag a fellow fundraiser or nonprofit leader who should be in the room!
