About the Council on Foundation's Wilmer Shields Rich Awards

Sponsored by the Council on Foundations, the Wilmer Shields Rich Awards for Excellence in Communications is an annual awards program that recognizes effective communications efforts to increase public awareness of foundations and corporate giving programs. The awards, which originated in 1984, showcase the ways foundations and corporate giving programs use communications strategies and techniques to advance their grant making goals. Awards are given in Gold, Silver and Bronze categories.

Wilmer Shields Rich, executive director of the National Council on Community Foundations (now the Council on Foundations) from 1957 to 1968, was an early champion of public accountability by charitable foundations in both their resources and activities. The awards program, named after the Council's first executive director, also seeks to educate the field of organized philanthropy about creative and strategic communications.
