Evaluators Needed for the Council on Foundations Awards

Council on Foundations is a clearinghouse for charitable foundations. Each year the Council gives an award called the Wilmer Shields Rich Award for Excellence in Communications to foundations that compete against each other (in their own size categories) by submitting annual reports, newsletters/magazines, websites, or special reports.  They need evaluators to work in teams and rate each entry on a pre-printed evaluation sheet.
 
This year the evaluation session will be on Friday, February 1, at the Council’s new headquarters in Crystal City, Virginia (exact location is 2121 Crystal Drive, Suite 700 · Arlington, VA 22202 · 800/673-9036)  The session will start at 9:00 a.m. and will run a good deal of the day (depending upon the number of entries received).  Breakfast and lunch will be served and the Council will reimburse for parking fees.  Further information can be found at the Council’s website address:  www.cof.org 
 
If you are interested please e-mail Ashley Duque Kienzle, adk38@georgetown.edu, with your name and contact information (the Council likes to send out thank you letters to participants) and also a short (one paragraph) bio.

    If anyone has the time, I would highly suggest getting involved. I participated as a judge in years past. It’s a great way to see what foundations are doing around the country. When I judged, I even got to take home samples of the best work.
