Fundraising technology company Blackbaud is seeking nominations for a new international award that honors technological leadership at nonprofit organisations.
The TechnOvation Award will be presented this October to three organisations that exhibit innovative leadership in their use of Blackbaud software.
“We are continually impressed with how non-profits we work with innovate in their use of our software,” said Robert J. Sywolski, CEO of Blackbaud.

“Whether it’s a new process to keep data clean, advances in using the web or a customiszation that provides for a truly unique need, these innovations are examples of how nonprofits are providing technological leadership to the greater community. We learn from our clients’ innovations every day and decided to launch this award to recognize some of the best examples.”
The three grand-prize winners will each receive a $2,000 donation and a trophy. The international award will be given annually, and all the company’s clients regardless of the Blackbaud products in use are eligible.
Organisations can nominate themselves or others. Nominations are due by 2 August 2002 and can be made at the Blackbaud Web site.
