In Australia, Fundraiser Appreciation Day occurs on the first Friday of July, which is the first Friday following the end of the financial year, when we see the highest levels of donor generosity.

The theme for Fundraiser Appreciation Day 2026 is The Power Of The Ask. Fundraisers are vital in helping charitable organisations and nonprofit causes fulfil their missions by raising valuable funds and building lasting and transformative relationships with their supporters. Their commitment, skills and expertise in the sector are essential for driving social change, tackling societal challenges, and creating a better future for all.

We speak with three fundraisers about what The Power Of The Ask means to them, featuring:

• Jennifer Rutkowski from Sir David Martin Foundation
• David Sloan from Wesley Research Institute
• Kat Crowley from Kidney Health Australia
