Deadline for FS' 2011 Gold Awards for Fundraising Excellence Is July 8

Each year about this time, our offices fill up with entries for our annual Gold Awards for Fundraising Excellence. It's an exciting time for us here at FundRaising Success because we become privy to the inside info and strategies behind some of the most successful, creative fundraising efforts from the previous year.

We're deep in the throes of awards season right now, so it's time to get your submissions in! Deadline for the 2011 awards is Friday, July 8. We'll announce the winners in the September issue of the magazine.

We've streamlined the categories this year, to shake things up a bit. Categories are:

• Direct Mail (paper or e-mail)
• Multichannel (any combination of channels)
• On the Edge (mobile, face to face, guerilla or anything that doesn't fit nicely in the two previous categories, etc.)

Like last year, entry fees are $125 for the first submission and $75 for each subsequent submission from each agency or nonprofit. Click here for an entry form and tracking sheet.

If you have any questions, please send an e-mail to mbattistelli@napco.com.
