My colleague Ruthann Richardson and I got to make some really cool calls yesterday. We got to speak to the four people we'd chosen on behalf of Pareto Fundraising as recipients of passes to AFP Congress at the end of the month.
We received a large number of really good applications, which made our job harder. But there were four that really stood out for us.
So we were thrilled to award the four Congress passes to:
Pam Bastedo from Meal Exchange
Aileen Doyle from JHR (Journalists for Human Rights)
Elaine Scrivener from Mark Preece Family House
Mary Warner from the Toronto Renewable Energy Cooperative
Each of these individuals shared with us what they were most excited about learning at Congress and how they would be able to use the knowledge and experience gained to further their organizations fundraising and make the world a better place.
Thank you to all who those who took the time to submit an application. And congratulations again to Pam, Aileen, Elaine and Mary. We think you rock! And we know you'll make the most of the three days.
We’re really looking forward to a great Congress.
I'm personally looking forward to bring inspired, challenged, taken out of my comfort zone and perhaps having some fun along the way.
See you there.
Jonathon
