The African American Development Officers (AADO) Network
AADO’s members are professionals of color (and their allies) that have designated fundraising and/or development as their primary responsibility in their organization.
AADO’s mission is to provide professional development, education, employment support, mentorship, and networking opportunities for fundraisers of color. Currently, led by a team of profoundly committed and accomplished volunteers, there are over 3,500 members across North America. In determining the strategy for the next 20 years, AADO’s sights are set even higher with plans to leverage its leadership position, industry credibility, and network to truly facilitate industry-wide change.
