Corporate Membership
Healthy, prosperous First Nations communities rely on effective leadership, solid economic foundations and a strong sense of community pride. This is the premise upon which the Aboriginal Financial Officers Association of BC (AFOA BC) was founded in 1996.
AFOA BC is about people helping people. We support the dedicated individuals working in the fields of First Nations finance, administration and governance. By providing the highest quality training and professional development, offering the latest tools and resources, and lobbying for our members’ needs, we work toward a vision of social, economic and cultural prosperity for all First Nations communities in BC.
Corporate memberships are available to businesses and organizations that work with First Nations organizations, communities and individuals.
AFOA BC is interested in working with organizations that support our vision, mission and goals and can contribute to the advancement of effective First Nations financial management, administration and governance in BC. Please provide a brief letter on how your organization can work with us in achieving our goals and vision and note any involvement and support you provide First Nations communities in BC. Please include the attached application form in your letter to us at reception@afoabc.org
