Howard Lake | 8 July 2012 | News
Seven fundraisers have been elected as Fellows of the Institute of Fundraising. The honours were announced at the Institute’s National Convention in London.
Peter Lewis, Chief Executive of the Institute of Fundraising, said: “I am very proud to announce these new Fellows of the Institute of Fundraising. Their appointment reflects their outstanding contribution to fundraising – they truly are jolly good fellows.”
Fellows are elected in recognition for “having made a special contribution to both the fundraising profession and the Institute”. They are nominated by other members and the Board of Trustees chooses which to elect.
Announcing the call for nominations in May this year, Lewis explained: “A Fellow could be someone who has done a lot to advance the professionalism of fundraising, or taken on our sector’s learning agenda; a fundraiser who has developed a new approach, or who has led well by example.”
