About Us

The Ohio Association for Healthcare Philanthropy (OAHP) is a membership organization for healthcare fundraising professionals serving the greater Ohio region. Our goal is to provide our members with tools that will advance their growth as a development professional, with a focus on outstanding education and networking opportunities.

Our conferences feature nationally-known speakers who normally appear at large-scale conferences, so attendees enjoy a quality program in a smaller, more intimate and attentive setting.

Our webinars cover a wide variety of topics relevant to the healthcare fundraising profession.

One of the most valuable benefits of membership is access to networking and exchanging ideas with friendly colleagues who share your passion for healthcare philanthropy.

Become a member today to access OAHP benefits to advance your career: networking opportunities, continuing education at a reasonable cost, scholarships, and more!
