A Message from Our President and CEO

As always, my sincerest thanks. We are grateful for your unwavering support for AHP and the professionals who work every day to transform healthcare through philanthropy. 

A partnership with AHP is strategic and mutually beneficial. We offer our partners exclusive benefits that deliver a strong return on your investment. We'll work closely with you to understand your greatest challenges, and develop a plan to help you achieve your goals.

In addition to event sponsorships, we offer multi-part webinar programs designed to be more intensive dives into complex areas with experts from your ranks. We also offer opportunities to co-author content, co-issue surveys, and include “advertorial” content in the AHP Connect. Our goal with this type of work is to help you achieve your goals and to provide our membership with valuable content they might otherwise not have access to.

We look forward to your ideas and to working with you in the coming year.

All my best, 

Alice Ayres
President and CEO

Sponsor a Webinar in 2025 

Webinar Sponsorship Options:

Share your expertise by leading an educational webinar for the healthcare philanthropy community. Held throughout the year, AHP webinars and mini-courses deliver high-quality education in an accessible, user-friendly format.

Single Webinar Sponsorship: $5,000 USD

Hosted via GoToWebinar, single webinars are designed to maximize audience reach and accessibility by offering free registration to all attendees. Typical attendance ranges from 150 to 250 participants, with approximately half joining live, depending on the topic. Recordings of each webinar are circulated post-event and are also made available for on-demand viewing on the AHP website. Each session runs for 45-60 minutes, providing concise yet impactful content.

Three-Part Webinar Series Sponsorship: $7,500 USD

A three-part webinar series offers the flexibility to either explore three separate topics or dive deeply into a single subject through a masterclass or mini-course format. This structure can follow a progressive learning path (e.g., 101, 201, 301), moving from foundational to advanced strategies, or focus on specific tactical aspects (e.g., 101, 102, 103). These interactive sessions are hosted on Zoom and may include a registration fee for attendees.

One unique benefit of the masterclass format is the opportunity for presenters to build stronger connections with participants over the course of the series, enhancing engagement and learning outcomes.

Additional Details for Both Formats:

  • AHP submits all webinars for CFRE credit to enhance their value for attendees.
  • AHP manages all technical aspects, allowing sponsors and their teams to focus solely on delivering high-quality content.
  • Content should prioritize actionable insights and practical learning for participants. While conference presentations require consultants or vendors to co-present with practitioners, this is not a requirement for webinars or virtual sessions. Sponsors may choose to involve a client to provide a peer perspective, but it is equally acceptable for the sponsor's personnel to lead the session independently.

We look forward to partnering with you to deliver impactful educational experiences that resonate with our audience.
