Lifetime Achievement

“Large gifts, they are there for your organization. Men and women, waiting to be asked. Men and women, waiting for the right program, the proper motivation, the excitement and exhilaration of sharing in a great adventure.”

These, according to quotation site strangewondrous.net, are quotes from this year’s Lifetime Achievement winner, Jerold Panas, who is known to many in the fundraising sector as one of the most important forces in philanthropy for the last half century, guiding many to success in fundraising through his counsel, training, inspirational lectures and workshops, and numerous publications. Over the course of his career, he has helped a diverse range of organizations raise more than $11 billion.
