2024 AFP Memphis Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Access (IDEA) Scholarship
AFP Memphis invites you to apply for a 2024 Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Access (IDEA) Scholarship. Applications are due May 31, 2024.
We recognize that IDEA principles are central to our mission, and expect all organizational interactions to reflect IDEA principles, including a demonstrated appreciation for different voices, active listening; open to disparate viewpoints and opinions, and facilitating dialogues among the diverse groups.
Through a limited annual scholarship program, AFP Memphis Chapter will cover the full cost for a year’s membership, including chapter dues. We are committed to promoting an inclusive, diverse, equitable and accessible organization where every member, volunteer, staff and board member can realize their potential and have their contributions valued.
To qualify for this offer, individuals must represent one or more IDEA constituencies and be a new member of AFP. AFP defines diversity as a core value. It is an inclusive concept encompassing, without limitation, race, color, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation or identity; religion, nationality, age, economic class, educational level, language, physical, mobility and ability, geography, and marital and parental status. AFP’s diverse communities include: African-American/Black, Asian, People with Disabilities, Faith-based, LGBTQ, Hispanic, Jewish, Rural, or another underrepresented community. They also must subscribe to the AFP Code of Ethical Principles and Standards and its bylaws, promote the Donor Bill of Rights, and be employed or have been employed by an organization that provides benefits to society.
In exchange for this scholarship, the new member will commit to a year of participation with one of our chapter committees. For further information, please email AFP Board Member, Brady Tanner at bradytanner@gmail.com
