FROM THE AFA FOUNDATION BOARD The Association of Fraternity/Sorority Advisors is proud to honor the generosity and spirit of our donors within these pages. The Annual Donor Report is a way to show how their contributions have made a difference in the professional lives of fraternity/sorority advisors, in the association, and in individual institutions and organizations. Our donors believe in the interfraternal experience, and they have made that clear through their support. Because of our generous donors, AFA has been able to expand research initiatives, create new educational programs, dedicate resources to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), and rethink and create professional development opportunities on current topics. We believe all of these things have created an outstanding association in providing what our members need to be better equipped to do their work. We want to thank all our donors for their investment and commitment to the profession, and we greatly appreciate them and their contributions.
