Welcome to the Canadian Association of Gift Planners, Nova Scotia Chapter!
CAGP Nova Scotia is an organization for fundraisers, professional advisors, lawyers, and accountants- to network, share ideas, and develop knowledge of current issues in gift planning.
The Nova Scotia Chapter hosts an event each month (summer months excluded). Either a networking event, lunch and learn, or virtual opportunity, is typically held on the last Thursday of the month. We invite anyone throughout the Maritimes with an interest in gift planning to attend these sessions. There are several advantages to membership, including a discount on the registration fee for both chapter events and those held nationally.
If you have any questions about the Nova Scotia Chapter and upcoming events, please contact Sara Burke, Chair, Nova Scotia Chapter.
We hope you will join us.
Mentorship Program
CAGP-NS has teamed up with AFP-NS to deliver a new joint mentorship program to our members.
The Mentorship Program is designed to match a junior fundraiser, with 3 years of experience or less, with a seasoned fundraiser as a mentor for coaching in areas of the field that they would like to learn more about. This program provides junior fundraisers, and those early in their careers, valuable one-on-one coaching, as well as the chance to learn more about the pragmatic side of fundraising, complementing the more formal professional development courses available. Mentees will be given the opportunity to hone in on specific skills they wish to cultivate, while mentors will play a leading role in advancing the profession of fundraising in Nova Scotia.
We are currently looking for mentors and mentees and invite you to fill out an application here: https://community.afpglobal.org/afpns/profdev/mentorship.
