The chapter is affiliated with an international association, which works to advance philanthropy through advocacy, research, education, and certification programs.  The Association strives to enhance philanthropy and volunteerism through a series of programs designed to benefit all those who lead, serve, and support non-profit institutions. Our members represent colleges, universities and secondary schools, hospitals and health care facilities, social service and cultural agencies, and local charities.
