IDEA (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, Access)

AFP has an opportunity – and a responsibility – to not only invest in the areas of equity and access, but also to be leading the charge for ALL fundraisers.

Investing in equity and access ensures AFP and the sector stay relevant not only to fundraisers, but to donors as well. We must take a comprehensive look at the barriers to professional equity and create resources to help tackle these issues.

IDEA Advisor Tool

IDEA Advisor is a tool that AFP Greater Vancouver has developed to support local organizations and non-profit professionals’ access to best practices that promote inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility. You can submit tactical, strategic, or policy questions on inclusive leadership and engaging diverse communities, and our team of volunteers will provide you with qualified responses.

All questions submitted are anonymous and you can be confident that the answers you receive will be timely and informative.

The IDEA Advisor tool provides:

• The opportunity to submit questions of tactical, strategic or ethical context.
• The confidence to deal with complex circumstances.
• An excellent learning tool.

We make our best effort to respond to your questions within 1-2 weeks depending on complexity.
