New international fundraising awards launched

International fundraising and philanthropy experts Chapel & York have launched new awards with charities, other nonprofits, and educational institutions globally eligible to apply.

The Chapel & York International Fundraising Awards have a number of categories, including education, arts & culture, charities with international remit/support, organizations new to international fundraising, and organizations who have undertaken a specific international programme. There is also a founder’s award recognising an individual who has made a significant contribution to international fundraising.

Entries are open until 1 October. An independent panel will judge each category, with three finalists chosen to compete in each by 1 December. The winners will be announced on 1 February next year.

Category finalists will receive a Finalist logo for use on their media, while category winners will receive a physical award to exhibit, a digital Winner logo for display, and a video from the judges describing why they were chosen, which they can highlight and share on their media channels. Chapel & York will also feature finalists and winners in each category on its social media, including LinkedIn, Twitter, and YouTube.

Nancy Bikson, Chapel & York Managing Director said:

“We want to acknowledge top-performing fundraisers in the international fundraising world, who often face financial and time constraints. Our awards will celebrate the hard work and dedication of organizations who go above and beyond to achieve success.”
