GolfStatus.org & AFP Launch Golf Fundraising Q&A Resource Series
LINCOLN, Neb., Sept. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- GolfStatus.org, the social impact division of golf technology company GolfStatus and the leading golf tournament management solution for fundraisers and nonprofit organizations, has launched an ask-us-anything-style content series offering ideas, insights, and practical tips for fundraisers planning charity golf tournaments as part of its partnership with the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP), the largest community of fundraising professionals in the world.

"Golf presents tremendous opportunities for nonprofits and charities," says Katie Casillas, director of marketing and communications at GolfStatus. "We're excited to field questions from frontline fundraisers about golf fundraising and share our expertise and experience working with golf events of all types and sizes."
AFP members, nonprofit organizations, and charity golf event organizers are invited to read the latest posts and submit questions for GolfStatus's golf fundraising experts at www.golfstatus.org/afp-asks.
