Overview

Mission

To educate about benefits, and values of face-to-face fundraising operations, best practices, benchmarking and transparency.

What it reported doing in 2024

The association hosted three education work group conferences attended by members consisting of non-profit and for profit organizations on education awareness. Expanded the automated territory management system coordinated with business and governments to ensure that fundraising supports communities where they fundraise.

Operating model

Revenue model
Membership-supported. 89% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and a relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work.
