Five new Fellows announced by the Institute of Fundraising

Howard Lake | 11 July 2014 | News

The Institute of Fundraising has announced the election of five new Fellows to the IoF Fellowship. Fellows are recognised for their contribution to fundraising above and beyond their day job.
In addition, the award of a fellowship acknowledges the commitment of those who give their time to the Institute to help develop the profession of fundraising.
This year’s fellows, announced at the Institute’s AGM at the National Convention in London this week, are Jane Cunningham, Cathy Sullivan, Martin Price, Tenika Ah-Wan and Margaret Bennett.
Speaking at his last National Convention as IoF Chair, Mark Astarita said:

“I am delighted that one of my last official acts as chair of the Institute is to recognise five outstanding fundraisers, who have given over and above the call of duty, both to fundraising and the IoF, as new Fellows of the Institute.”

What do Fellows do?

UK Fundraising’s Howard Lake was elected a Fellow of the Institute of Fundraising two years ago. Being elected is an honour and recognition by one’s peers for a substantial contribution to fundraising and the Institute. Fellows are expected to offer advice, guidance and support to trustees, staff and Institute members.
As well as the honour, Fellows are invited to attend an annual dinner in London, at their own expense.
