DMA Nonprofit Federation Names Heifer International 2010 Nonprofit Organization of the Year

“Heifer International’s storied 65-year history really impressed the Awards Committee,” said Mary Bogucki, chair of DMANF’s Awards Committee and vice president of Amergent in the release. “An organization that started with a Midwestern farmer serving as a relief worker during the Spanish Civil War has blossomed into one of the world’s most respected organizations. Already recognized as an innovator delivering world-changing results, Heifer International has fundamentally redefined direct-response humanitarian relief fundraising and therefore, this year, earns DMNAF’s most prestigious honor.”
