THANK YOU
Thank you to the funders, volunteers, and supporters who make the Fellowship in Inclusion and Philanthropy possible.The program is operated by the AFP Foundation for Philanthropy – Canada, and it is funded by the Ontario Ministry of Citizenship, Immigration and International Trade.
“The Ontario Ministry of Citizenship, Immigration and InternationalTrade has been an exceptional partner. We are grateful for both their financial commitment to increasing diversity in the voluntary sector and their partnership approach.”
Leah Eustace, ACFRE
Chair, AFP Foundation for Philanthropy – Canada
“The ministry avoided taking a top-down approach and instead financially supported fellows to design and direct unique projects that truly serve the organizations and diverse communities where they work.This approach makes all the difference for a program focused on inclusion.”
Lori Gusdorf

who have put their time, their resources, and their energy behind creating this program.
This is something that was needed for a very long time.

The fellows will definitely make a lot of change to the organizations we work with. We’ve been given the tools and the education and all the support from the Government of Ontario and from AFP to initiate change.We have the mandate and the support from the top.
That makes us feel very comfortable that we can affect change.
