[rtpnet-tact] Conference Aug 14, Raleigh, Association of Fundraising Professionals

[Judy Hallman]

To TACT list, with copies to Della Dewar and Kathryn Bilbro,

I meant to send info on this conference sooner. The current cost is $90
for nonmembers, $125 the day of the conference.

I don't think the brochure is online (the only info I found online is at
http://www.afpnet.org/chap_hp.cfm?chpt=NC2&folder_id=932 ), so here is an
abbreviated version -- please pardon typos.
