(Arlington, Virginia) The Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP), the largest association of fundraising professionals in the world, has announced a new partnership with Sylogist MISSION CRM, a donor management and fundraising system built on Microsoft Cloud for Nonprofit.

“AFP is pleased to welcome Sylogist MISSION CRM to AFP ICON 2024 in Toronto as a Silver Sponsor and year-round Development Partner,” said Chris Amos, senior director, business development. “With their expertise in artificial intelligence and innovations in direct response, MISSION CRM can provide the type of future-focused education that makes attendees excited to attend this event. We’re looking forward to the guidance they can provide to the fundraising community at AFP ICON and beyond.”

“We’re thrilled to join AFP Global as a Development Partner and Silver Sponsor of AFP ICON,” said Christina Herancourt, managing director of MISSION CRM.

“This is an exciting time to be working in partnership with fundraisers and nonprofits to harness the power of technology and AI to help raise funds and unify data in one place so they can see the full picture of their donors and maximize their capacity, income and impact. By partnering with AFP Global, we look forward to connecting with more fundraising professionals and learning how we can continue to innovate and in turn advance their mission.”

The AFP Partners Program provides participating organizations with year-round opportunities to engage the fundraising community and pursue corporate social responsibility through tangential support of the causes for which they work. Through thought leadership, marketing, content, and professional development channels, AFP Partners position themselves as industry leaders committed to advancing philanthropy and ethical fundraising worldwide.
