AFP Calgary & Area Chapter is proud to present the 23rd Annual National Philanthropy Day® Generosity of Spirit™ Awards being celebrated in Calgary, November 14th.
National Philanthropy Day® brings community together to celebrate some of the most committed, generous individuals in our city and region. They are visionary, passionate and committed to fixing a challenge or a series of challenges to make the world better
This year, we honour philanthropists in five categories for their gifts of time, talent, treasure and energy to make our communities, and our world, better. These individuals and groups take small and large steps, every day, to make changes that improve the world for the people and agencies they support in numerous ways. The ripples that their efforts make have a massive impact.
