Certified Fund Raising Executive (CFRE) International has announced that Donna Schuck, Associate Vice President of Philanthropy and Donor Relations at Evangelical Community Hospital, has been recertified as a CRFE.
Schuck is one of over 7,700 professionals around the world holding the designation, one she has held since 2017.
Individuals granted the CFRE Credential have met a series of standards set by CFRE International which include tenure in the profession, education, and demonstration of fundraising achievement. They have also passed a rigorous exam that tests the knowledge, skills, and abilities required for a fundraising executive, and have agreed to uphold Accountability Standards and the Donor Bill of Rights.
“The CFRE credential was created to identify for the public and employers those individuals who possess the knowledge, skills, and commitment to perform fundraising duties in an effective and ethical manner,” states CFRE International President and CEO Eva E. Aldrich, Ph.D., CAE, (CFRE 2001-2016). “As the certification is a voluntary achievement, the CFRE certification demonstrates a high level of commitment on the part of Donna Schuck to the fundraising profession and the donors who are served”
CFRE recipients are awarded certification for a three-year period. To maintain certification status, they must demonstrate on-going fundraising employment and fundraising results and continue with their professional education. Employers and donors who work with CFREs know they are getting a professional who is committed to the best outcomes for their organization and has the requisite knowledge and skills.
The CFRE certification signifies a confident, ethical fundraising professional.
