Our Program

Three nonprofit rock stars (including two Nina Abady Award recipients) will be joined by VAFRE's former President and current VCU Senior Director of University Development James Wasilewski, CFRE, for an energetic and informative discussion of the importance of mentorship in the profession of fundraising.

Panel Members:

• Ruth Modlin Ellett, CFRE,
  
• Cheryl Groce-Wright, and 
• David Thomason

This panel of amazing fundraisers will discuss their own mentorship experiences, both as mentor and mentee, to kick of VAFRE's 2022 luncheon series with some "do's and don'ts'' for both those mentoring and those being mentored all with a dose of humor and energy from Mr. Wasilewski.

Approved for 1 hour of CFRE credit.
