  • Jump on Board High-Performing Not-For-Profit Boards in Fundraising
    JUMP ON BOARD HIGH-PERFORMING NOT-FOR-PROFIT BOARDS IN FUNDRAISING November 2019 PREPARED BY Melissa Smith Director & Founder, Noble Ambition in partnership with Perpetual ABOUT THE AUTHOR Melissa is former Global Fundraiser of the Year (IFC, 2011) and Australian Fundraiser of the Year (FIA, 2011). She has facilitated philanthropic giving across education, the arts and health, and worked with hundreds of donors in Australia, Asia and the United States. Melissa has led four fundraising programs from start-up to established, from Powerhouse Museum and Sydney Opera House in the arts, to University of Technology, Sydney and RMIT University, in education. Melissa has a BA Hons (First Class, USyd), Masters of Management (UTS); is a Churchill Fellow (2007) and a graduate of University of Melbourne’s Asialink Leaders Program and Benevolent Society’s Sydney Leadership Program. She has presented her research internationally in areas including the impact of culture on philanthropy, international best practice in arts philanthropy, and the role of leadership in philanthropy. Melissa’s lifelong interest and experience enables her to understand both philanthropy and fundraising. As a thought leader in the philanthropic and fundraising sector, she is in the privileged position of possessing the practical and strategic skills to support both pillars equally. Jump on Board: High-performing not-for-profit boards in fundraising 2 Philanthropic fundraising in Australia is in a state of rapid change. While mass giving is in decline, major gifts are on the rise, and in coming years we will see the largest intergenerational transfer of wealth in our nation’s history. This undoubtedly presents an exciting opportunity for the non-for-profit (NFP) sector to attract significant support, but also raises questions about how prepared NFPs are to maximise this opportunity.

  • Equity and Excellence in Australian Schools
    159 Government Senators' Dissenting Report Introduction This dissenting report was prompted for several reasons. First and immediately, to correct the inaccuracies and bias in the majority report developed with a clear political agenda and which has eschewed the evidence on school education in Australia today. Second, and more importantly to seek to place future school funding in relation to the Commonwealth, which is all this Senate Committee can and should be considering, in a better context than has occurred throughout these hearings and in the debate, if it can be called that, which preceded the Senate Committee’s appointment. Third, to outline core principles which should drive Commonwealth school education policy for the future and to focus discussion and hopefully future education policy to those issues that matter most – namely the policies needed to improve education outcomes of students. The Commonwealth’s funding arrangements for schools became an area of settled public policy by the early 1970s. After years of acrimonious partisan and sectarian debate, there was strong bipartisan support for Australia’s unique school system where the states and territories were responsible for school policy, and most of the funding, with additional Commonwealth support. Such Commonwealth funding was needs based and reflected principles of equity, fairness and choice. Irrespective of the type of government, of course, there was a residue of confusion about how the funding system worked, and myths abounded regarding funding models and criteria. Sadly, this bipartisan support and rational debate was swept aside following the release of the Gonski Review of Funding for Schooling (henceforth called the Gonski Review) in November 2011.
