The Pan African Network (PAN) is deeply committed to investing in our members and community by providing financial assistance toward convention attendance through our #PANItForward campaign. This year’s convention theme of “Access Granted” charges our network to continue creating access for current and future Black student affairs professionals, and we believe the PANItForward campaign plays a key role in our work. We recognize the barrier that finances can present in allowing underrepresented populations to fully participate in purposeful and meaningful professional development opportunities. PAN is raising funds to provide convention funding assistance (e.g., registration, NEXTGEN participation, hotels, food, travel) for ACPA members in need. Our campaign efforts align with and connect to our association’s strategic imperative on racial justice and decolonization, serving as a reminder of the importance of breaking barriers of access for professionals.

Help us reach our goal of raising up to $1000 to sponsor mini scholarships to provide funding assistance based on the needs of our members!

We will be collecting funds between November 5, 2021 to January 7, 2022 – all funds raised will continue our investment in our community by helping members mitigate the costs of attendance to ACPA 2022.
