New Philanthropy Award – nominations closing soon!
By James Goodman
We would like to share the news about the Queensland Community Foundation’s new Environmental Philanthropy Award which recognises an outstanding Queensland individual, family, or family foundation with a proven record of exceptional environmental philanthropy endeavours.
We are proud to sponsor QCF’s first cause-based award. We have come to realise having the community recognise the good work of those who support the environment is a particularly effective way of furthering this vital cause.
About the Environmental Philanthropist of the Year award
The Queensland Community Foundation, the peak philanthropic organisation in Queensland, is looking to award a Queensland philanthropist (individual, family, or family foundation) with an established record of outstanding environmental philanthropic work who has made a significant impact made in the Queensland community through leadership in environmental philanthropy, voluntary commitment of time, advocacy, financial donations, and/or fundraising.
You can read more about the award criteria here.
