| 2022 Award Winners Announced!The VAFRE Awards Committee is pleased to announce our Award Winners for 2022:
Congratulations to both of our honorees! We will be celebrating their accomplishments with an afternoon reception on Tuesday, May 3 at the Virginia War Memorial. Watch for complete registration details coming soon. Our thanks to our Presenting Sponsor Brown, Edwards & Company for their support of VAFRE and the development community in Richmond. Additional sponsor opportunities are available: e-mail admin@vafre.org. April 12th Program: Making the LeapAs development professionals, we are cultivating a unique skill set that makes us great candidates for executive leadership. In the back of your mind have you ever wondered what the transition from Development Director to Executive Director looks and feels like? How can you prepare for a future transition? Join VAFRE on April 12 for an informal conversation with three former Development Directors who have made the leap, which will be hosted by a fellow nonprofit leader who is also a former Executive Director. The conversational format will explore the joys and challenges of becoming an Executive Director and allow plenty of time for interaction and questions. The program will be offered both in-person and virtually, and is approved for 1 hour of CFRE credit. Participate in CFRE's Job Task Analysis SurveyEvery 5 years CFRE performs a Job Task Analysis survey that asks fundraisers about what comprises their day-to-day to work. This survey data is used to ensure the content of the CFRE exam aligns with what fundraisers really need to know. To participate in this year's survey, click here.
