The awards celebrate the passion, vision, and success of nonprofits and fundraising professionals.

INDIANAPOLIS, April 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- OneCause, a leading provider of digital fundraising technology, today announced it is accepting nominations for the 2023 Raise Awards. Now in their sixth year, the awards honor forward-thinking fundraisers and nonprofit organizations that are shaping the future of fundraising by employing innovative strategies to inspire donors and raise funds.

"It's a privilege to shine a spotlight on the passion and ingenuity of Fearless Fundraisers who are helping reimagine generosity," said Steve Johns, chief executive officer for OneCause. "Each year, the Raise Awards are a way to celebrate the incredible people and organizations who are helping solve some of the world's biggest problems."

The annual awards recognize multiple winners, segmented by nonprofit size, for their achievements in the following categories:

  • Innovative Nonprofit of the Year: Recognizing innovation and creativity in fundraising by organizations who are thinking outside the box and implementing new ideas.
  • Storyteller of the Year: Recognizing excellence in communicating purpose and vision through branding, narrative, and promotion that informs the mind and moves the heart.
  • Fundraisers of the Year: Recognizing individuals who live out the organization's mission, are dedicated to the donor experience, and always give 100% percent to the cause.
