The Partners in Fundraising Awards 2013

The Partners in Fundraising Awards are a celebration of the contribution of partners and suppliers who work with the sector.

We know that truly great partners in fundraising inject inspiration, drive and expertise whilst pushing innovation, sustainability and creativity. Importantly, the right collaborator can be the difference between success and failure.

The fundraising sector is thriving. The sector is bigger, and busier than ever. But fundraisers are under pressure to hit challenging targets and competition is fierce. Identifying the best fundraising partners quickly and confidently is essential.

The nominations were shortlisted by a senior panel of impartial judges, and IoF members used their breadth of experience to single out the truly great partners in fundraising in the 13 award categories.

The PIFA winners were announced at a prestigious awards ceremony on  24 January 2013, hosted at the Nursery Pavilion at Lords Cricket Ground with hundreds of industry friends and charity contacts.
