Awards Program
The Greater Dallas Chapter of the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) sponsors an annual awards program to recognize outstanding achievement of national scope by individual, foundation and corporate philanthropists, fund-raising volunteers, and professional fund-raising executives.
In professional fundraising, such individuals and organizations form a vital partnership that philanthropy must have to maintain its contribution to mankind. It is right and proper, therefore, that we honor those who best exemplify commitment, dedication and talent toward helping society.
Nominations may be made by completing one or more of the chapter's nomination forms and returning the forms to the Dallas Awards Committee Chair as indicated. Nominations must be received by April 25, 2008. The appropriate form must be completed for all nominations.
Selection Process
Nominations for each award may be placed by an individual member of the Dallas AFP Chapter. Please see the nomination form for each category for criteria and previous winners. Completeness of information is essential for consideration. The Awards Committee will make a final selection for each award. All categories will be awarded having met the Association's selection criteria and historical high standards of achievement. If, in the judgment of the Committee, no nominees meet the criteria, an award may not be given. Do not submit a nomination until you have discussed the nomination with the potential nominee. Make certain that the nominee will accept the award if named! Also, make sure they will be available to receive the award at the National Philanthropy Day luncheon on Friday, November 14, 2008.
Presentation of Awards
The honorees will be notified of their selection in May and receive their awards at the National Philanthropy Day luncheon celebration, November 14, 2008. Honorees must be present to receive their awards.
