BWF's CFO is CFO of the Year! (Association Bisnow)
December 16, 2009
Yesterday, we attended The Oscars for accountants—the annual CFO of the Year Awards. The luncheon was held on Day 2 of the Greater Washington Society of CPAs' Not for Profit Organization Symposium at the Mayflower. So, who are the Kate Winslets and Sean Penns of the financial non-profit world?
Bob Woodruff Foundation's Alexis George took the Rising Star award. (There’s Bob, former ABC World News anchor, off to the left.)This starlet joined the foundation months after its creation and developed its budgets and financial reporting system, while managing $6M in contribution and grant revenue. Alexis oversaw distribution of $3.4M in spending and has managed to keep administrative expenses to 7%. In congratulating Alexis, Bob said, "If you don't mind, I'd like you to run for President of the United States."
