FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- Every year, local people and organizations dedicate their time and money to make our community a better place.
Many of them work behind the scenes, so you may not always hear about them or recognize their names.
That's where National Philanthropy Day comes in.
We sat down with Joan Minasian, president of the Valley Chapter of the Association of Fundraising Professionals, to discuss the upcoming awards luncheon.
