Scholarship Fundraising Challenge for Chapters

/

Earlier this year, the Houston Chapter donated $5,340 to the ACFE Foundation to support the Ritchie-Jennings Memorial Scholarship Program.

“We are excited that our members and board came together to contribute to the scholarship program. In my opinion, ACFE Chapters are in the best position to help drive awareness and generate support for the scholarship program,” said Houston ACFE Chapter President Ryan Hubbs.

Now we’re asking all ACFE chapters to do some fundraising of their own while having the opportunity to win some great prizes for their chapter, including ACFE books, merchandise, CFE Exam Prep Courses and complimentary registrations for ACFE conferences.

All chapters have the chance to win a great prize while also supporting the future of the anti-fraud profession.

How does the challenge work?

There will be prize packages awarded to chapters for meeting levels of donations:

  • Bronze - donations more than USD 1000 – prize package of assorted books and merchandise
  • Silver - donations more than USD 2500 – prize package of assorted books and merchandise, including two copies of the CFE Exam Prep Course
  • Gold - donations more than USD 5000 – prize package of assorted books and merchandise, including four copies of the CFE Exam Prep Course
  • Platinum - donations more than USD 7500 – prize package of assorted books and merchandise including four copies of the CFE Exam Prep Course and two registrations to a 2015 ACFE fraud conference (choose from Asia-Pacific Fraud Conference, European Fraud Conference, Global Fraud Conference or a CFE Exam Review Course)

The chapter can collect donations when members renew or register for events, or raffle off prizes during a seminar or networking function.

All chapters who participate will receive recognition on ACFE.com and on social media.

The deadline to submit your chapter’s donation is December 15, 2014. Please send your check, payable to the ACFE Foundation, to:

Association of Certified Fraud Examiners
Attn: Ashley Stone
