Fundraising is an honorable and inspirational profession that makes a huge difference in the lives of millions of people across the U.S. Without the work of fundraisers, charities would be unable to provide their critical programs that feed the hungry, heal the sick, shelter the homeless, protect our environment and countless other missions that we take for granted every day.
