Philanthropic Fundraising Activities in Stimulus Bill Preserved Thanks to the Efforts of the Association for Healthcare Philanthropy

AHP's efforts worked and drew the attention and support of others in the philanthropic and nonprofit communities.

In a letter to AHP membership, McGinly said, "The efforts of AHP and our members have been a great success. Thank you to all who have supported our profession as we fought this important issue."
