Scholarship Challenge Returns

Last year, the Scholarship Fundraising Challenge for ACFE chapters raised nearly $18,000 for future anti-fraud professionals. Participating chapters also received some great prizes to share with their members.

In 2016, we will look to surpass last year’s totals with the return of the challenge.

How does the challenge work?

There will be prize packages awarded to chapters for meeting levels of donations:

Bronze: donations more than $1,000; prize package of assorted books and merchandise
Silver: donations more than $2,500; prize package of assorted books and merchandise, including two copies of the CFE Exam Prep Course
Gold: donations more than $5,000; prize package of assorted books and merchandise, including four copies of the CFE Exam Prep Course and one registration to the main conference at a 2017 ACFE fraud conference (choose from the Fraud Conference Middle East, Fraud Conference Europe, ACFE Global Fraud Conference, Fraud Conference Canada or Fraud Conference Asia-Pacific)

Chapters can collect donations when members renew or register for events, or raffle off prizes during a seminar or networking function.

All chapters who participate will receive recognition on ACFE.com, in Fraud Magazine and on social media.
