A Gateway to Good

From the newly-minted to the seasoned professional, every attendee of the 15th Annual ADRP International Conference will have wonderful opportunities to grow and be a Gateway to Good. This year's theme calls out St. Louis’s iconic Gateway Arch and ties it to the underlying conference theme of social justice and how our work can and does advance it.   

Networking Opportunities

The ADRP International Conference invites all donor relations professionals and enthusiasts to convene and begin fostering mutually beneficial relationships by offering valuable opportunities to network and get to know others in the industry from all around the world. 

Valuable Education

Though ADRP offers necessary CFRE continuing education credits throughout the year through regional events and monthly webinars, the International Conference is able to provide even more for its attendees by offering three full days of influential and meaningful sessions from donor relations experts.

Engaging Sessions

In conjunction with this year's theme, "A Gateway to Good", sessions at this year's annual conference will spotlight social justice and how our work can and does advance it. Each session will challenge norms, lead the way in our profession, and speak to varying experience levels, shop sizes, and institution types.
