The International Association of Advisors in Philanthropy, nicknamed "AiP” believes in the transformation of philanthropy through collaboration. It is our belief that philanthropic capacity is built through collaborative programs and projects which unite financial advisors, lawyers, accountants, bankers, trust officers, philanthropic advisors, charitable organizations, foundations, donors, and wealth planners in a common goal. The AiP mission is:

• To inspire and educate advisors, helping them make philanthropic planning with their clients/donors an integral part of their practice
• To create a unique network of support through collegial relationships among an intentionally diverse spectrum of professionals attracted to membership in our organization
  
• To promote the highest ethical standards in philanthropic planning
