The Dayton Foundation Wins National Award for Outstanding Communications

For the fifth consecutive year, The Dayton Foundation has been named an award winner for excellence in communications by the national Wilmer Shields Rich Awards Program. Sponsored by the Council on Foundations, the premiere professional organization for all foundations in the U.S. and abroad, this national awards program recognizes effective communications efforts to increase public awareness of foundations and corporate giving programs.

The Dayton Foundation received the 2008 Bronze Award in the magazine and periodicals category for Futures, the Foundation’s publication for financial and estate planning advisors. The Dayton Foundation competed against the largest of over 750 community foundations across the United States and abroad (foundations over $250 million in assets). The award will be presented at the Council on Foundations’ Leadership Summit outside of Washington, D.C.

“The Foundation is honored to once again receive national recognition for excellence in communications,” said Michael M. Parks, president of The Dayton Foundation. “Effective communications are vital to the Foundation’s goals of serving our constituents and providing public accountability.”

The Dayton Foundation, established in 1921, is the regional community foundation that serves the multi-county Greater Dayton Region. The Foundation helps donors find the best and most tax-wise ways to achieve their charitable objectives, invests and manages donors’ charitable funds, and provides grants and leadership to grow philanthropy and help meet present and future community needs. More information about The Dayton Foundation and its services is available at www.daytonfoundation.org.
