|
|
"WOW! - What a
Convention!" was many a comment by attendees. Here are some other comments from those attending: Hope you are keeping well. I wish to thank you for the invitation early this year to attend the South African Fundraising Convention. Thank you too for the tips you gave to me. It was very good learning experience for me and I surely look forward to keeping touch. Moses Njenga, Sightsavers International, Kenya Thank you very much for the workshop and it was out of this world, wonderful indeed. Kabelo Poloko, Botswana Family Welfare Association (BOFWA) The Conference was fantastic and I am so glad that I did attend. Once again thank George and the Committee for organizing such a successful Conference with so many interesting speakers. I will definitely attend in 2 years time if I’m still around and am also planning to attend more of the local workshops in CT. Now you can relax a little! Anita Reed, Vera School For Learners with Autism Just a word to say many thanks to you and the whole SAIF committee for a wonderful, most valuable conference. We have certainly learned much and hope to systematically implement and update various systems in fundraising. One never realise the amount of work and preparation that has gone into such an event, we just arrive and enjoy!! Please convey our sincere gratitude and appreciation to all who made this conference such a major success. We are proud to be members of SAIF!!! We wish you well in all future endevours. Ansa Prinsloo, Helderberg Hospice Thank you so much for an excellent and very informative SAIF conference that we had the privilege of attending last week. Congratulations on a perfectly planned event. Cathy and Corrie, Institute for the Blind Just a quick note to say a very big thank you for the wonderful 3 days that I spent with you a the Birchwood. You can commend yourselves on a well organised and very informative convention. I appreciate all the hard work and time that went into organising this huge event. WELL DONE. Natasha Voigt, Hospice Rustenburg Warmest thanks to you all for organising the conference. I attended the masterclass on bequests and found it very profitable. I know that a lot of work goes into running the conference and wish to place on record my deep appreciation to each one of you for bringing such great speakers to the country. A special word of thanks to Sandra Miller for being inspired to bring Richard Radcliffe - he has given us a new approach to bequests that I think we will find very helpful - a very refreshing day indeed! Peter Laubscher, Leprosy Mission Southern Africa |
