Apra Pennsylvania Distinguished Service Award

The Apra Pennsylvania Distinguished Service Award acknowledges the work of individuals who provide exemplary service to the chapter and/or field of prospect development. The award was created in 2019 and nominations are open to Apra PA members in good standing who have at least three years’ experience in prospect development or fundraising with at least one year focused on prospect development. The winner will have shown aptitude and implement growth in prospect development at their organization or have provided service to the chapter through board membership and activity, presenting at an event, or other activities that help grow the chapter or enhance the membership experience.

The Apra PA 2025 Distinguished Service Award form is now closed. We would love to hear your ideas in 2026!
