Fundraising Stars

"Debbie's unparalleled passion for Special Olympics, her ability to multitask flawlessly, and her knowledge about fundraising and volunteer management are the qualities that make her unique," Hale writes.

We agree and are especially impressed at Debbie's vision in finding ways to increase revenue from this event while actually cutting back on her staff's workload. In an economy such as this, where development staffers are so wildly overworked already, and more and more fundraisers are looking for ways to empower donors and event participants to do more fundraising on their own, we find this a winning outlook worthy of a Fundraising Star.
