Final Call: 2014 FundRaising Success Gold Awards Entries Due Tomorrow!

This is, as FundRaising Success Editor-in-Chief Margaret Battistelli Gardner always says, one of our favorite times of year: Gold Awards season. We get to check out and celebrate some of the best fundraising campaigns in the industry and learn what's working for fundraisers of all missions, sizes and locations.

And now is your last chance to get your entries in for the 2014 Gold Awards for Fundraising Excellence, because the final deadline is tomorrow, Aug. 29! So any of you late to the party, get your entries ready and overnight them to FundRaising Success headquarters, because we won't be accepting any more nominations after tomorrow.

This year’s full lineup of categories is Direct Mail, Email, Multichannel, Telefundraising, Special Event, Peer-to-Peer, Website, Social-Media Mastery and On the Edge. You can find the entry forms here, more information on the awards here and a list of past winners here. Don’t forget, the final deadline is now Aug. 29, and in order for a campaign to be eligible, it must have taken place between Jan. 1 and Dec. 31 of 2013. The 2014 Gold Awards winners will be announced in the October issue of FundRaising Success.

Download the entry form here. There is a $125 entry fee for the first entry from a company and/or nonprofit organization, and each additional entry costs $75 apiece.

Each entry must be submitted individually and be accompanied by its own entry form, tracking sheet and check. Please submit two copies of each entry.
