Marie Curie, Woodland Trust & Salvation Army among winners of this year’s IoF Insight in Fundraising Awards

Marie Curie, Woodland Trust and Salvation Army are among the winners of the 2019 IoF Insight in Fundraising Awards, while Jim Baggett, Founder Director of Wood for Trees has received the Outstanding Achievement Award.
The eighth IoF Insight in Fundraising Awards were celebrated at London’s Royal Institute of British Architects last night (12 June) with charities and suppliers recognised for their excellent use of data and insight in fundraising.
Other winners included Cancer Research UK, British Red Cross, The Children’s Trust, Wood for Trees, and Marketing Metrix.
The awards saw record numbers of entries received in a number of categories with the Most Powerful Insight Using Data Analysis category seeing eight entries shortlisted as a result while Most Powerful Use of Insight in Mass Fundraising had seven.
Nick Mason, Chair of the IoF Insight in Fundraising SIG and Founder of UpliftingData commented:

“At the heart of all good fundraising is great insight and it was really encouraging to see so many strong entries across all of the categories, giving every indication that the role of insight continues to grow throughout the sector. It seems we’ve been able to lift our heads up from our concentration on the implementation of GDPR, and to start really considering how we can improve our organisations’ fundraising. All categories were hard-fought, and our congratulations go out to everyone who has been shortlisted, highly commended and of course to this year’s winners.”
