Gold Awards for Fundraising Excellence, Fundraising Success

Harvey McKinnon Associates is proud to announce that the direct mail package “Extinction Means Forever” has won a bronze in the Gold Awards for Fundraising Excellence.

The package was created for the Marmot Recovery Foundation based on Vancouver Island.

This was an acquisition mailing that included note cards featuring photographs of marmots in the wild. The success of this package was incredible, producing a 300% higher response rate than the control package it was tested against.

AHP Showcase Award

The Association for Healthcare Philanthropy awarded the Showcase Award for the best hospital direct mail package in Canada to Harvey McKinnon Associates.

The winning direct mail package was a year-end mailing for the Princess Margaret Hospital Foundation, the largest cancer research centre in Canada and one of Canada's best-known hospitals.

One judge commented, “The mail piece and the corresponding event touches the heart and soul of the donor, while the entry itself is methodical, logical and well done.”
