Congratulations to the FY20 Prime Officer and Peak Performance Institutions

Overview

Each year when we review year end results across the Blackbaud Fundraiser Performance Management community, we recognize institutions which demonstrate high performance in two areas: Gift Officer performance and Annual Giving Programs.
